BERLIN — The Berlin City Council spent most of their work session Monday discussing the budgets of three departments or boards: Berlin Industrial Development and Park Authority, Berlin Regional Airport and the administration/information technology budget.
Interim City Manager Pam Laflamme presented the proposed BIDPA budget, which she said is down for this year, as the overall budget request is for $333,444, compared to the current year’s budget of $361,444.
