The city has adopted a $327.3 million budget, including capital expenses, for the next two years.
The estimated spending from the general fund is $125.4 million.
The City Council adopted the budget Nov. 28. The vote was 4-3.
“The budget is a complex entity, and there are always lots of opinions on how to make it work best,” Council President M. Christopher Boyer said Friday.
This was the first year that Lynnwood used a new budget system. Departments were asked to list the most important services and goals rather than line-item expenditures.
