Council amends fiscal 2025 budget to record unexpected police and fire revenues
Summary
Palmview adopted a budget amendment that records roughly $12,500 in additional revenue — $9,500 for police and $3,000 for fire — and appropriated those amounts for vehicle maintenance and travel/training costs respectively.
The Palmview City Council adopted an ordinance amending the fiscal year 2024–25 municipal budget to recognize unanticipated revenues for police and fire departments and to appropriate those funds for department-specific uses.
City staff explained that by charter the city must amend the budget when it receives unanticipated revenues. The amendment records an increase of $12,500 in revenues: $9,500 for the police department (intended for vehicle maintenance) and $3,000 for the fire department (intended for travel and training). The council approved the amendment by motion and voice vote.
