Bradford council approves 2025 budget, millage, zoning changes and a series of appointments and resolutions

The Bradford City Council voted to adopt the 2025 budget and millage ordinances and approved a package of zoning, public-safety and administrative actions during a council meeting (date not specified).

The council passed Ordinance 3298, the 2025 budget ordinance, and Ordinance 3299, the 2025 millage ordinance, approving the city—s planned appropriations and fixing the real-property tax rate for city purposes for 2025. Councilors also approved amendments to zoning regulations (Ordinance 3231.6) and an amendment related to solid waste (Ordinance 2801.37).

Why it matters: adopting the budget and setting the millage rate establishes the city—s spending plan and the property tax rates that fund city services; zoning and solid-waste ordinance changes affect development rules and municipal waste handling.
