DURYEA -- The council failed by one vote Monday to override Mayor Eugene's
Chromey veto of the 1993 budget. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Four councilmen voted to override and two voted no. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Voting to override were Councilmen Allan Dommes, Mike Fereck, Carl Salitis
and Larry Guitson. No votes came from Leonard Piorkowski and Emily Romanczuk. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Councilman Steve Yomkimishyn was absent. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Five votes are needed to override. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 The council will meet at 6:30 p.m. Monday, Dec. 28 to discuss the veto and
take another vote. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 In his veto message, Chromey said the council has mismanaged the taxpayers'
money to the tune of a $70,000 deficit, causing the town to eliminate
dispatching services. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Chromey also said the proposed budget would not meet next year's financial
needs and would result in a bigger deficit with a large tax increase next
year. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 The 1993 budget totals $533,259 with tax rate of 23 mills, the same as this
year, and the elimination of the dispatching service. A mill is a $1 tax on
every $1,000 in assessed valuation. A resident with property assessed at
$3,000 would continue to pay a tax of $69. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 Eliminating the dispatching service would mean a savings of $65,000. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 The dispatching department has three full-time workers with full medical
coverage, and four part-timers. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 In other business, the council appointed Councilman Guitson to oversee the
street and sanitation departments.
