Youngstown Council approves resolutions certifying tax levies to county auditor
Summary
Youngstown City Council unanimously passed two resolutions accepting the budget commission's amounts and rates and authorizing necessary tax levies, directing certification of those levies to the county auditor.
Youngstown City Council on Nov. 19 unanimously passed Resolutions 1 and 2 to accept the amounts and rates determined by the budget commission and to authorize the necessary tax levies and certification to the county auditor.
The move came after the council voted to suspend the rules and place both resolutions before the body for immediate consideration. Council members discussed a ward-related clarification before the roll call; no changes to the fiscal text were expressed on the floor.
The resolutions do not list dollar amounts or levy rates in the meeting transcript; the motions recorded only accept the figures "as determined by the budget commission" and direct certification to the county auditor. Council did not attach supplemental figures during the Nov. 19 session.
With the certifications passed, the clerk will transmit the approved amounts and rates to the county auditor as required. The council proceeded to consider a series of ordinances immediately afterward.
