The La Porte City Common Council voted Monday to approve a resolution transferring funds between line items in the city27s 2025 budgets to cover essential services and obligations.
Councilman Galloway introduced the resolution and read the text, which lists several transfers across funds for the 2025 fiscal year. The transcript records one specific item in the resolution as: "Transit fund, 2,500 and ten-three $0.04, from 501 salaries to 505 utility services, dollars 4,000." The council approved the resolution by voice vote after a motion and second; the transcript does not record individual roll-call votes.
A council member noted the resolution could be passed that evening; no amendments to the transfers were made during the meeting. The resolution authorizes finance staff to reallocate existing budgeted amounts between line items but does not create new appropriations.
The council recorded the motion as passed by voice vote. The resolution text as read on the record will be used by the Clerk-Treasurer and finance department to carry out the transfers listed.
