The Dixon City Council has addressed next year’s municipal budget, drawing particular attention to a $200,000 funding request from The Dixon: Historic Theatre. While council members have inserted a provisional line for the theatre in the proposed budget, a final decision is on hold.
Councilors cited the need for comprehensive financial documentation from the theatre before moving forward. The final vote on the budget—including the theatre’s request—will take place on April 20th. Community members and theatre supporters are watching closely as the outcome may affect the preservation and operation of this historic community venue.
