The Pleasanton City Council has approved the final payments to all involved bringing the overall project in at about $5,000 under budget!
The City of Pleasanton has already begun to budget and plan for Phase 2 tentatively scheduled for 2012!! |

2011 Budget-Effective Tax Decrease |
|
Work on the City of Pleasanton 2011 budget is complete and has been approved for publication by the Pleasanton City Council.
The City experienced an overall decline in total valuation of approximately 2%. This means that a single mill in the City of Pleasanton in 2011 will be worth about $5,525 as opposed to $5,631 in 2010. The long and the short of the situation is that because we have opted to keep the mill levy at the same level with no increase the City will operate with less money in 2011.
THE GOOD NEWS!!- The overall decrease in total valuation coupled with the same mill levy means that the average Pleasanton tax-payer will pay less in 2011 than they did in 2010.
We have worked hard at City Hall to keep expenses as low as possible while increasing the level of service and the completion of important infrastructure projects (street improvements, water line replacement) and we hope to be able to continue this trend of small tax decreases as we go forward and our community continues to improve. |
