OWEGO, N.Y. (WHCU) — There’s a vote scheduled today in the Tioga County Legislature on next year’s budget. 

In November, Legislative Chair Martha Sauerbrey presented a spending plan for 2024 of over $102 million. It’s higher than this year’s budget. Sauerbrey says part of the reason for the bigger budget is bigger salaries for employees after the settlement of two contracts.

Legislators meet today at noon.
