Belpre City Council approves supplemental 2025 appropriations
Summary
The Belpre City Council voted to approve a resolution supplementing the 2025 appropriations after suspending committee rules for second and third readings.
The Belpre City Council on an expedited vote approved a resolution supplementing the city’s 2025 appropriations after the council voted to suspend committee rules for second and third readings.
Councilman Ferguson moved to bypass committee and place the appropriations resolution on the agenda for second and third reading. The motion to suspend the rules passed on a roll call vote, and the council then approved the resolution, listed in the minutes as resolution number 3020222025.
Council members raised a few procedural questions during discussion about specific line items and whether grant applications would follow appropriations for certain supplies. The council’s auditor confirmed an additional $1,000 was added for supplies discussed during the hearing. The council conducted roll calls at multiple points; members recorded voting “aye” during both the suspension and final approval votes.
The resolution was presented and approved in the meeting’s business session; the council did not indicate any amendments to the measure during the meeting. The record shows the council treated the matter as urgent and completed second and third readings in the same meeting.
The council did not specify an implementation timetable for the expenditures in the resolution during the meeting.
