The budget emphasizes cost-cutting measures in overtime and contract work, continued staffing priorities for Fire, Police, and DPW departments, infrastructure improvements including $1.1 million in Solomon's Creek flood protection and $1.5 million for Brookside Levee protection, and quality-of-life initiatives such as community policing programs and street repairs.

The City of Hazleton's 2026 Budget Proposal, presented November 13, 2025, recommends a real estate tax increase of 2.308 mils, representing a 25.3% increase, driven primarily by a projected $1,016,204 drop in total revenue and a 16.2% increase in healthcare costs exceeding $800,000.
