Summary
City officials carried a motion to approve a budget item after noting the city’s software costs are lower than those of other communities; specific cost figures were cited during discussion but the agenda item itself was not named in the transcript.
Glens Falls City officials moved and seconded a motion to approve a budget item, then recorded an affirmative voice response and declared the motion carried.
During the discussion before the vote, an unidentified speaker said the city’s software cost was “on the lower end” compared with other cities and thanked staff for keeping expenses down, saying “the huge software that the city uses is certainly less than what other communities companies use.” Separate remarks during the review cited the figures “$7.30” and, separately, “2997¢,” which were read aloud in the meeting record without additional context.
After the vote an unidentified speaker confirmed the approved amount would be placed into the budget and noted the city has executed many budget adjustments recently, estimating the number of moves at about 20. The transcript does not identify the motion’s mover or seconder by name, nor does it specify the exact line-item or ordinance number associated with the approval.
