BERLIN — Just a dozen people turned out Wednesday night for the public hearing on the proposed 2022 Berlin budget and all but a couple were department heads or school officials. Only one person commented on the budget.

The city council presented a budget of $37.5 million, up $1.7 million over the current budget of $35.8 million. It would result in an estimated tax rate increase of $1.87.
