Hickman gives first reading to FY2025–26 operating budget ordinance
Summary
The Board of Commissioners gave a first reading to Ordinance 25-150 to establish the City of Hickman's annual operating budget for FY2025–26 across the general fund and enterprise funds, authorizing the city manager to administer funds and to change line items within departments to meet unexpected needs without prior board approval.
The City of Hickman Board of Commissioners read Ordinance 25-150 during a special-call meeting, giving the document its first reading as the city advances its fiscal year 2025–26 budget process.
Ordinance 25-150 "establishes an annual operating budget for the general fund, gas, water, wastewater, cemetery, and alcohol beverage control" for fiscal year 2025–26 and "sets forth the anticipated revenue and expenditures for said funds," according to the reading presented at the meeting. The ordinance authorizes the city manager to administer the collection and expenditure of all monies in the attached schedules and directs that an audit be conducted as required by law.
The text read into the record also authorizes the city manager "to change line item amounts within a department budget to meet unexpected needs without approval of the board of commissioners," and appropriates sums contained in the schedules for administration by the city manager. The ordinance states it will become effective after its second reading and required publication.
This was a first reading; the transcript records no motion to adopt at this meeting and no formal vote. The board did not amend the ordinance during the session and moved on to other agenda items.
