City staff reports $700,000 property-tax deposit; sales tax settlement unclear in transcript
Summary
Staff told the council the city received around $700,000 for the first half of 2024 property taxes and described recent sales-and-use tax settlements; the exact sales-tax settlement figure was unclear in the transcript.
A staff member told the Hickman City Council that the city’s statement of cash and bank accounts through April 2025 showed a substantial deposit from property taxes. "We had our first half of the 2024 property taxes deposited and that was around $700,000," the staff member said.
The staff member said the general fund showed the biggest recent change was the tax deposit and noted continued tracking of lease payments from NPPD. On sales-and-use tax receipts, the transcript records the speaker reading a settlement amount aloud as "420 10537." That figure is not clearly formatted in the record provided; the staff member described those receipts as February collections deposited in April.
The meeting record shows staff are auditing revenues and expenditures and preparing year-end audit items before final presentation to the council. No budget amendments or specific spending decisions tied to the recent deposits were recorded in the provided segments.
