Council notes amended budget must be passed by year-end; numbers pending
Summary
Council members said the amended budget must be passed by the end of the year but that staff member Christy will not provide the budget numbers until the end of the month, leaving timing and precise figures pending.
An unidentified council member told the Struthers City Council that the amended budget "has to be passed by the end of the year," signaling a firm deadline for adopting the amendment.
John (law director/counsel) responded that Christy would not deliver the budget numbers "till the end of the month," and said there was "nothing to discuss" until those numbers are available, calling it "a number game thing." The unidentified speaker added that the amended budget "would be the only piece of legislation" (the transcript also records the shorthand "29," but the excerpt does not specify whether that number refers to an agenda item, ordinance number, or something else).
The transcript records discussion about timing and the need for a majority vote but does not include any motions, votes, specific dollar amounts, or a formal schedule for final consideration. Council members indicated they would await the figures before substantive debate or voting.
