City staff presented the fourth budget amendment for fiscal year 2024–25 (Resolution R-2503) during the Jan. 21 Saratoga Springs City Council meeting, saying the majority of the adjustments fund Central Utah Water purchases and include a few internal reallocations and tentative additions of positions for the cemetery and library.
"This is the 4th budget amendment for this fiscal year. The vast majority of the funds in this budget amendment are going towards Central Utah Water Purchases," a staff presenter said during the public hearing portion of the meeting.
The council opened the public hearing but no members of the public spoke on the amendment. After closing the hearing, a motion to approve the resolution passed unanimously.
Why it matters: The amendment shifts city budget authority to cover water purchases from Central Utah Water and includes administrative adjustments in the recorder’s office as well as the addition of positions flagged for next fiscal-year needs at the cemetery and library. The city indicated there is no additional net expense in some internal reallocations and that the personnel items were early planning steps for the next fiscal year.
What happens next: The approved resolution updates the city’s fiscal 2024–25 appropriations as described in the staff presentation. Staff indicated no immediate public hearings or further public comment were required; implementation steps will follow standard budget execution procedures.
