The Clearlake City Council approved the largest budget in the city’s history late last week. After budget workshops, the council voted to approve the just over $83 million budget. For this new fiscal year, the city budget includes more than $45 million in grant funds to support the Clearlake Apartments project. Despite the $33 million difference from last year’s budget, City Manager Alan Flora says the city has still had to be strategic about spending and minimizing costs.
