At $200 million, Lawrenceville’s fiscal year 2024 budget will be the biggest budget that city leaders have passed in the county seat’s 202-year history.
The City Council adopted the budget this past week after two-budget work sessions and two public hearings. There are four main areas in the budget, dealing with staff retention and recruitment, community engagement and what Lawrenceville officials called “critical” infrastructure improvements. Some of the items in the budget include raises for city employees, a new in-house recycling service, a trail system, a police bike unit, utility improvements and housing assistance.
