The McDonough City Council voted at its May 20 regular meeting to adopt a resolution approving the city’s budget for the 2019-2020 fiscal year, which begins July 1.

The budget was set at $28,200,893. There was a very brief public hearing before the vote with one resident speaking in favor of the new budget and no one speaking in opposition. All six members of the council who were present at the meeting voted in favor.

The new budget is higher than the current fiscal year’s total of $27,658,815 but lower than the $28,881,751 budget of two years ago.
