In a special called meeting and public hearing Thursday night, the Hall County Commission got a review of the FY 2019 budget, a $266 million spending plan that includes pay raises for county employees and millions of dollars worth of capital improvements. 

While the total budget represents a 10-percent increase over the prior year's budget, there's a decrease of 6-percent in the General Fund budget.That decrease is the result of restructuring of county government's service delivery agreement.
 
Under the plan, county employees would see a five-percent pay hike and an increase of two-percent in retirement fund matches.
 
County financial officials also included $58.4 million in capital improvements for the upcoming fiscal year; that's part of a $284.2 million five-year capital improvement plan. 
 
The proposed millage rate is 5.36 - a decrease of 1.34 mills from last year's rate.
 
A final vote on the budget is scheduled for Thursday, June 28.
