City Budget

Police Public Information Officer Travis Welsh says these new officers will be filling a couple of different needs.

Montana State Insurance Commissioner Matt Rosendale announced on Thursday that for the first time health insurance rates were dropping, some by double digits.

The Ravalli County Coroner reports that a 28 year-old woman from Florence drowned in Lake Como on Friday.

The regularly scheduled budget meeting of the Missoula City Council was cancelled on Wednesday due to some confusion over numbers sent by the Montana Department of Revenue with those already received by the city finance department.

At Wednesday’s City Council Committee of the Whole, the Missoula City Council will be revising the city budget due to what have been termed ‘inadvertent errors’ made in the original budget that was passed in July.

In an earlier story, KGVO used inaccurate numbers when reporting the projected increase in the city's 2018 budget, incorrectly stating the increase at 18 percent, when the actual increase was only 3.87 percent.

For the first time, the public can get involved in the Missoula city budget process through an interactive activity called the City Budget Game.
