Summary

Clerk Allison asked council to fund a $200,000 capital request for records‑management scanning and related tech; the clerk also said staff are prepared for upcoming primary and general election duties.

Allison (the municipal clerk) presented the clerk's portion of the budget and a capital request of $200,000 for records management and scanning projects, describing the ask as a tech investment to replace legacy microfilm and improve digital imaging and records access. She said the capital figure covers multi‑departmental scanning and records projects.

Council asked about staffing and election payroll lines ahead of the upcoming primary and general elections; Allison said current staff levels should be sufficient for the cycles but that contingency planning continues. She and staff said they are purging records in advance of a move to a new building and coordinating with engineering and health departments on project needs.

Council did not take a vote during the workshop and requested follow up on vendor quotes and final cost estimates before formal capital approval.
