City Manager reported that the city secured several legislative appropriations but that its library grant requests did not make the final budget. The city received nearly $100,000 for roof replacement at the police station and $500,000 toward a mast‑arm traffic signal at Maple Avenue and Horatio; a separate request for library grant funding did not receive state budget funding. The city manager said the administration submitted materials to the governor’s office and received a request for extensive financial information and additional documentation, with a one‑week deadline. City staff are compiling documents and expect to respond within the requested timeframe; the manager said staff are coordinating across departments to meet the request. The manager also noted that some appropriations that passed in the administrative review did not survive the final legislative process and that the city will continue to pursue other funding sources; no formal council action was requested at the meeting.
