In a recent government meeting, officials emphasized the urgency of approving a balanced budget to avoid potential disruptions in pay for employees. The discussion highlighted concerns about the implications of a \"no\" vote, with one member questioning the consequences of failing to pass any measures, which could leave staff without compensation.
The meeting proceeded with a call for a vote on a levy, which received unanimous support from the majority of members present. The roll call vote confirmed that the motion carried, paving the way for further discussions on the 2025 budget ordinance, which has been pending since October.
As the meeting concluded, officials acknowledged the need for a decisive resolution to ensure financial stability moving forward. The next steps will involve reconvening to address the budget ordinance and any necessary alterations to the proposed financial plans.
