Finance panel approves $1,000 transfer into Eagles Wings 2025 budget

The finance committee approved moving $1,000 into the 2025 budget line for Eagles Wings after members suspended the rules to consider the matter. The transfer was presented as a routine budget revision to allow Mr. Myers to use additional funds for program improvements; committee members voted in favor after a motion and second. The presenter said the account still carries about $7,000 in leftover funds from prior years, and the $1,000 would be shifted into the current year so the program can access it. Committee members discussed the procedural step to suspend rules so the item could be heard this week rather than being doubled up into next week’s agenda. A committee member noted the larger packet of budget changes under consideration totals about $113,000 and had been covered at a prior committee meeting. No additional conditions or amendments were recorded in the meeting transcript. The motion to approve the transfer passed with the standard voice vote: “All in favor say aye.” The committee proceeded to other items after the vote.
