from franchise fees (paid by
utilities and cable compa-
nies), transient taxes (from
hotel and campground cus-
tomers), state shared reve-
nues (taxes on liquor, mar-
ijuana and cigarettes), fees
and fines.
Some city departments and
projects are intended to be
funded in full or in part by
user fees, such as when de-
velopers pay fees for a city
planner to review and ap-
prove building plans. Water,
sewer and trash fees should
pay for those services. Gaso-
line taxes should pay to im-
prove roads.
But in nearly every case,
Warrenton’s user fees fall
short and the shortage must
be covered by the general
fund.
Warrenton voters also
chose to tax themselves to
pay for library services and
additional police services.
This year, property owners
will pay $1.67 per thousand
dollars of assessed value for
general government, 33 cents
for the library and 28 cents
for police.
Grants will cover parts of
some projects, including re-
placing and improving water
and sewer services in Ham-
mond and improvements at
