The Newark City Council adopted Resolution 25-55, an appropriation resolution authorizing moneys for current expenses of the municipal corporation. The motion to adopt was made by Council member Marley and seconded by Council member Barker; the council approved the resolution by roll call.

Why it matters: appropriation resolutions authorize expenditure authority for municipal operations and are part of the city’s routine budgetary process. While the resolution was adopted at this meeting, the transcript does not include line-item budget amounts or specific departmental allocations.

Vote and procedure: Council member Marley moved to adopt Resolution 25-55; Council member Barker seconded. Roll-call voting recorded affirmative votes from council members and the resolution passed (recorded as 10 yes). The meeting record shows no extended discussion or public comment on this item.

Next steps: adoption provides the legal authority for disbursing funds under the municipal budget; detailed budget documents or line-item appropriations would appear in separate budget reports or agenda items, not in this meeting transcript.
