Seymour Delays Increase in Tax Levy After Failing to Notice Public Hearing

From the Seymour Tribune:

City officials have put on hold a recommended increase in the tax levy for its Cumulative Capital Development Fund until a public hearing can be conducted.

Seymour Common Council did not introduce the resolution Monday as announced on its agenda because of the error and plans to bring it back for discussion and a vote at the July 23 meeting at which time the public hearing will be held.

“The resolution … requires a public hearing, which we have not advertised,” Clerk-treasurer Fred Lewis said.
