Council approves first reading of Resolution 824 and authorizes mayor to execute contract
Summary
Jeffersontown City Council gave first reading to Resolution 824, series 2025, adopted the finance committee's unanimous recommendation and authorized the mayor to execute a contract presented to the committee.
The Jeffersontown City Council on May 20 gave first reading to Resolution 824, series 2025, and voted to authorize the mayor to execute a contract that had been reviewed and recommended by the finance committee.
Council members said the finance committee met and recommended passage; the council moved and approved the first reading by voice vote and subsequently authorized the mayor to execute the contract presented to the committee. The finance committee reported a unanimous recommendation.
During discussion a council member noted budgetary adjustments that, when combined with cuts inside the police department and city hall, amount to about a 6.5% overall raise in the package under discussion. The council did not provide additional detail during the meeting on the final budgetary totals or the specific line-item cuts.
The motion to authorize the mayor to execute the contract was followed by a roll-call confirmation in which councilmembers recorded “Aye.” The council then moved on to committee reports.
What’s next: Resolution 824 will advance according to the council’s rules for single-reading resolutions; staff will proceed with the contract execution as authorized by the council.
