The Columbia Falls City Council adopted the second and final reading of Ordinance 8‑34, which amends the city zoning map, and approved Resolution 19‑49 transferring remaining balances from two closed Special Improvement District funds to the general fund.
During the roll call for Ordinance 8‑34’s final reading, one councilor recorded an opposing vote while the remainder voted aye; the ordinance passed and the final reading was declared approved. The transcript records Councillor King as opposed in that roll call and other councilors and the mayor voting in favor.
Resolution 19‑49 concerns SID 34 and SID 36, which staff said had paid all principal and interest and collected all assessments as of June 30, 2025. Under Montana statute language cited by staff, remaining balances in inactive SID funds may be transferred to the general fund; the resolution authorized transferring $2,805 from those closed SID funds to the general fund. Council moved and approved the resolution by roll call.
Both actions were recorded in the meeting minutes by roll call vote for the ordinance and the resolution.
