DUMFIRES, Va. — What officials want: Dumfries’ $4.4 million budget reduced by as much as four cents. While that may not sound like much, it amounts up to a $60,000 cut in town services.
At Tuesday night’s Town Council meeting, leaders tasked Town Manager Daniel Taber coming up with a way to fund the town’s needs, implement tax cuts, and take into consideration council members’ individual wants for the coming fiscal year. He’s to report back to them with a balanced budget in two weeks, detailing what services he intends to cut to make it all work.
