SANFORD, Fla. – Residents in Sanford have a chance to speak up Monday night on several resolutions that will affect their taxes and services before commissioners vote.

Sanford City Commission is hosting its regular meeting at 7 p.m. at city hall.

On the agenda is a public hearing and final vote on plans to adopt a fire assessment fee. The city wants to adopt a fire assessment fee to fund fire protection services and free up other revenue in the general fund.
