According to the notice, the proposed budget will raise $1,376,721 more in property tax revenue than last year, a 4.77 percent increase.

Copies of the proposed budget are available for public review at the City Secretary’s Office and the Sachse Public Library, both located on Sachse Road, as well as on the city’s website at www.cityofsachse.com/budget.
