Anamosa council approves FY26 budget amendment and several ordinance first readings
Summary
After a public hearing with no comments, the council adopted a FY26 budget amendment and approved first readings of ordinances on tax division for two renewal areas and code changes on late-payment penalties and sewer user fees; consent agenda and pay requests were also approved.
The Anamosa City Council on May 26 held a public hearing on a proposed FY26 budget amendment, received no public comment, and adopted Resolution 2026-29 to amend the annual budget for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.
Council members also approved multiple ordinance first readings during the meeting. Ordinances 971 and 972 were advanced on first reading as part of the urban renewal items (division of taxes for the Kouba Second Addition and the Northland Second Addition). The council approved the first reading of Ordinance 973, which amends Chapter 92.07 related to late-payment penalties, and Ordinance 974, which amends Chapter 99.10 regarding sewer user fee adjustments; both passed on unanimous roll calls.
The council also approved consent-agenda pay requests totaling $172,273.78 while excluding an $8,000 invoice from ECICOG for the Anamosa Comprehensive Program. The council opened the floor for public comment on non-agenda items; no members of the public spoke. The meeting adjourned at 7:10 p.m.
Why it matters: the budget amendment updates the city’s fiscal-year allocations; ordinance changes affect fee and penalty structures that may impact residents and utility customers.
What’s next: ordinance second readings or final adoptions will be scheduled as required; budget changes take effect per the approved amendment.
