Councilman McCourt told the council Sept. 8 that the agenda included a first reading of an ordinance "authorizing the appropriation of $1,200,000 for the Roscoe net nonemergency transportation service for the remainder of the calendar year 2025 and declaring an emergency." Council later moved to waive the three‑reading rule and adopted the ordinance on the same night.

The appropriation was advanced as an emergency measure. Councilman McCourt moved to waive the three‑reading rule; Councilman DeMent seconded. The clerk called the roll to waive the three‑reading rule and subsequently to adopt the ordinance. The roll-call votes recorded in the transcript show unanimous 'Yes' votes on both the waiver and the ordinance adoption.

The city did not discuss funding offsets, departmental budget reductions or the specific revenue source for the $1.2 million appropriation in the meeting record, and those details were not provided at the meeting.

The ordinance was recorded as adopted during the meeting and is effective as of Sept. 8, 2025; the council instructed the clerk to record the vote and proceed with administrative steps for implementation.
