Council approves tax-levy certification and waives two-day rule to pass appropriation resolution
The Newark City Council unanimously approved Resolution 25-57, accepting amounts and rates as determined by the budget commission and authorizing necessary tax levies to be certified to the county auditor. Council Member Barker moved to approve Resolution 25-57; the motion carried on a roll-call vote with all members present voting yes.

Later in the meeting, the council considered Resolution 25-58, an appropriation resolution for municipal current expenses. Council Member Barker moved to waive the standard two-day reading rule for 25-58; the motion to waive received a second and passed on a roll-call. Council then moved to adopt Resolution 25-58; the council passed the appropriation resolution by roll-call vote. The meeting record shows the council adopted 25-58 the same night after waiving the reading requirement.

The meeting transcript contains no further details about the amounts or specific line-item appropriations contained in 25-58; the resolution was read and adopted under the emergency/waiver process permitted by council rules. The clerk’s or finance office’s published ordinance packet or the official resolution document should contain the exact levy rates and appropriation figures for public review.
