The Smithville Board of Aldermen approved an emergency ordinance amending the fiscal year 2025 budget to add $4,500 to the general fund and $32,782 to the combined water and wastewater funds.

Alderman Atkins moved to approve bill 3073-25, described in the meeting as "an ordinance amending the fiscal year 2025 budget to add $4,500 to the general fund and $32,782 to the combined water and wastewater fund expenditure budget." A mayoral second followed. The clerk called the roll; aldermen voted in favor in both the first and second readings, and the presiding officer announced the motion carried.

The transcript records both readings and the roll calls. The second reading passed with all five aldermen recorded as voting aye. The meeting record does not include line-item detail explaining the specific purpose for each added amount beyond the fund-level descriptions.

Discussion vs. decision: the meeting shows formal motions and roll-call votes approving the amendment; no additional debate or amendment to the ordinance is recorded.

The ordinance is recorded as an emergency amendment; the transcript does not specify when the added funds will be spent or identify specific budget line items.
