TID’s Tuesday, August 31, 2010 Board of Directors Meeting will include a budget workshop. At a recent TID budget workshop, interesting dialogue took place between the TID Board and TID Managers when the Board questioned an automatic 3 percent planned increase in department budgets and if there had ever been a year where managers worked with no department budget increases.
