Summary

On third reading the Wellston City Council adopted Ordinance 202588 to add appropriations tied to the EPA/OWDA water plant project and approved Ordinance 202589 to authorize journal entry corrections to city financial records; both measures passed unanimously as recorded in the meeting minutes.

The Wellston City Council on third reading approved two financial ordinances, including an additional appropriation tied to the city’s water-plant project and a measure to correct financial journal entries.

The presiding officer called the third reading of Ordinance 202588 — described as "additional appropriations in the EPA OWDA water plant project expense lines" — and a motion to adopt and pass carried with affirmative recorded responses shown in the meeting record. Immediately afterward the council advanced Ordinance 202589, authorizing journal entry corrections to the city’s financial records; that motion also passed on recorded affirmative votes.

The ordinances were presented as part of ongoing capital work at the municipal water plant. The council did not debate the measures at length during this session; the ordnance text and fiscal impacts were included in the meeting materials made available to the public.

A separate ordinance (202603) related to appropriations for the officer blue fund and drug enforcement supplies was placed for second reading and was not finalized in this meeting.

The council’s actions authorize staff to proceed with the bookkeeping adjustments and to apply the additional appropriations toward the water-plant project as described in the meeting materials. The council then moved on to department reports and other agenda items before convening an executive session on personnel.
