Council Meeting In Princeton Monday: What To Expect

PRINCETON, NJ — On Monday, Princeton Council will be meeting and on the agenda is a public discussion on the proposed budget.

When the budget was introduced in March, residents were informed that homeowners will see a 1 cent increase in municipal property tax rate — the first increase in two years. The municipal property tax rate is expected to increase from 50 cents per $100 of accessed value to 51 cents.

A public hearing and final action on the proposed spending plan are scheduled for Monday's meeting.

Also on the agenda is a work session to finalize the concept plan for the Witherspoon Street Phase 2 design. The plan is for the section of the road stretching from Green Street to Franklin Avenue.. Read More: No Green Light Yet For Princeton's Witherspoon Street Phase 2 Design

When the two design concepts were presented during the last meeting, council asked for more time to study the designs before giving the engineering department the green light.
