The borough will be transferring just over $2.5 million from saving accounts to cover expected expenses related to the upgrades needed for the administration and police building currently under renovation on Main Street.
The borough auditor said at last month’s meeting that 2015 revenues are expected to be comparable with past years. Tax revenues make up about 12 percent of borough revenues.
The Tullytown budget includes the annual property improvement grant to all property owners.
