What happens next. The notice lists final enactment for the council meeting on Dec. 14, 2026, at 6 p.m. in Council Chambers.
How to look at the documents. The notice says the ordinances can be examined or copied at City Hall, Room 101, 416 S. Main St., Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and are also on file at the Westmoreland County Law Library. The proposed budget is available for inspection at the City Administrator's Office from Nov. 30 to Dec. 14, 2026, during the same hours.
Why it matters. The tax rate, fees and city pay rates for 2027 all go through these four bills. The notice summarizes what each bill does but doesn't print the dollar figures, so residents who want specifics should review the ordinances at City Hall or speak at tonight's hearing.
