Port Huron will hold a public meeting on May 13th at 6 p.m. to review its proposed ’25-’26 budget. City Manager James Freed outlined a $143.8 million plan, trimming $2.4 million in new requests to keep it balanced. Cuts won’t impact last year’s department budgets. Big costs include wastewater and general fund operations. Rising healthcare, equipment, and fuel prices continue to strain city finances. Freed says residents shouldn’t feel the cuts, which focus on admin changes. Union salary talks could still affect the general fund.
