Board adopts amending ordinance to cap township budget appropriation for FY 2025–26
Summary
The Board of Trustees unanimously adopted amending Ordinance 2025-003 t to cap the township budget appropriation for the fiscal year April 1, 2025–March 31, 2026. The clerk will file the amended budget with the county clerk; the board recorded a roll-call vote in favor.
The Board of Trustees voted to adopt amending Ordinance 2025-003 t, a measure to cap the township budget appropriation for the fiscal year beginning April 1, 2025, and ending March 31, 2026. The board approved the ordinance after a short discussion of filing procedure.
Board members said the ordinance text "starts on page 50," and the presiding speaker explained the filing process, saying, "You're approving it," and that after approval "the clerk will bring it to the county clerk's office to be recorded with the amended budget." A question from another attendee sought clarification whether city council action was required; the presiding speaker responded that the board's approval is final and the county clerk's recording completes the process.
The board took a roll-call vote on the ordinance; recorded verbal responses during the roll call indicate support from Supervisor Hess and multiple trustees. The presiding speaker announced that the motion passed and instructed the clerk to file the adopted amendment with the county clerk as a public record.
The ordinance was introduced and described at the meeting and will be recorded by the clerk as described; no additional county-level approvals were indicated during the exchange. The board did not identify any amendments to the ordinance during this meeting.
The board's next regular meeting is scheduled for Jan. 20, 2026, at 6 p.m.
