Summary

Council held a brief public hearing and approved 2025 budget amendments for the general fund, library benefits fund, water and sewer operations funds, and a police equipment fund to align planned expenditures with updated year-end revenues and liabilities.

Tonganoxie opened a required public hearing on proposed 2025 budget amendments covering multiple funds and then approved the amendments.

Finance staff explained adjustments to planned expenditures driven by employee-related benefits (health-insurance premiums and compensation), credit-card processing fees and other midyear changes. The city also proposed an increase in the library benefits fund to account for unanticipated pilot revenue remitted through the county so the city can legally pass through year-end tax remittances to the Tonkinoxie Public Library without violating budget-authority thresholds.

Porter noted that some amendments are precautionary to create appropriate legal expenditure authority at year-end. Mayor Fries opened the hearing; no members of the public spoke. Councilmember Dale moved to approve the 2025 budget amendments; councilmember Partridge seconded and the motion carried.
