The 2024 Budget includes 83.88% or <br />approximately $163,928 increase in personnel services. The increase is due to the addition of a new full-time <br />position, Community Relations Manager, and due to new personnel reallocation of existing staff. <br /> <br />Elections – A contract with Ramsey County to administer the Little Canada elections beginning in 2021 has been <br />included in the 2024 budget.
