Divided board narrowly OKs village budget

November 18, 2020

The Grafton Village Board narrowly approved a $26.36 million budget for 2021, with several trustees voting in opposition because requested salary increases for Grafton Fire Department chiefs were not included in the spending plan.

“I am voting no because I’m concerned the wage adjustment will not be addressed,” Trustee Jim Miller said during Monday’s meeting. “This has gone on for several years at Finance (Committee).”

The budget passed by a 4-3 vote margin. Voting to approve were Village President Jim Brunnquell and trustees Dave Antoine,  Dan Delorit and Tom Krueger.
