Melville City Council approved its 2021 Operating and Capital, and Utility Budgets, a task made difficult with the COVID-19 pandemic. The budgets feature a 2-point 11 percent tax increase and a 0-point 8 percent increase to utility rates for the average homeowner. They also focus on projects such as the Melville landfill expansion, the replacement of Lift Station number one, and the replacement of the swimming pool.
