www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com Despite declining revenues that have caused other governments to furlough and lay off workers, the city of Lawrenceville was able to include seven new jobs and an average 7% raise for its employees in its latest budget, which took effect July 1.
Lawrenceville was not immune from the downturns other cities faced; their revenues from fines, sales tax and alcohol taxes are all lower than they were this time last year, City Manager Chuck Warbington said. But, they’ve remained higher than what was planned for in the budget year that just ended. Money from city-administered utilities paired with a “conservative” budgeting process helped Lawrenceville’s financial plans remain largely unaffected, Warbington said. The city’s budget for this fiscal year is $182 million, up from $167.8 million in Fiscal Year 2020.
