Emery council approves revised 2025–26 budget and moves forward on 2026–27 spending plan
Summary
Council members voted to accept a revised 2025–26 budget and approved the proposed 2026–27 budget reviewed in a prior public hearing; they also agreed to schedule a public hearing required for a CIG grant application for the Pioneer Church and to swear in the lone applicant for a council vacancy at the next meeting.
The Emery Town Council approved adjustments to its 2025–26 budget and accepted the proposed spending plan for fiscal year 2026–27 during routine business.
Council members made and seconded a motion to approve the revised 2025–26 budget; the chair declared the revised 2025–26 budget accepted following voiced approval. The council then moved and seconded approval of the proposed 2026–27 budget that had been reviewed in a prior public hearing and the chair announced acceptance of that proposed budget for the 2026–27 fiscal year.
Neither the motions nor the meeting content included dollar-line details in the transcript; the council referenced the fiscal years and a resolution number for the 26-27 action but did not state totals in the record provided. The votes were taken by voice and members present voiced assent.
On other business, the chair said a single applicant had applied for the vacant council seat and that the council expects to swear that person in at the next meeting. The transcript uses the surname Stewart for the applicant; the chair and others said they will "square him in on the next meeting." The council also agreed to schedule and post a public hearing required for a CIG grant application for renovation work at the Pioneer Historical Church.
Next steps: the council will swear in the vacancy appointee at the next meeting, post the public-hearing notice for the Pioneer Church CIG application, and staff will post the approved budgets and related documentation per standard practice.
