Finance staff reports unaudited 2024 figures, flags $25,000 for building repair and theater lighting needs
Summary
Finance staff presented unaudited 2024 figures, said revenues have plateaued, and noted $25,000 in the proposed budget for tuckpointing and potential art purchases, plus plans for a lighting grid for the O'Fallon Theatre; no policy votes were taken.
Finance staff presented the committee with an unaudited financial summary for 2024 and a preview of items in the current-year budget.
The presenter said year-to-date figures typically lag a month or two and that overall revenues have "kind of maxed" compared with recent trends. For 2025, staff identified $25,000 in the proposed budget earmarked for tuckpointing on a city-owned building and an allocation for potential art purchases. The presenter also said the city is considering a lighting grid for the O'Fallon Theatre and noted prior-year spending had included seating and a stage extension.
Committee members had no substantive follow-up beyond appreciation for the update. The committee did not take any formal action following the report.
