Atkinson council approves Aug. 4 minutes, reviews proposed 2025–26 budget and adjourns
Summary
At a Sept. 2 special meeting, the Atkinson Mayor and Council approved the Aug. 4 minutes, reviewed the proposed 2025–2026 budget (no figures recorded) and voted to adjourn at 7:38 p.m.; the minutes contain a clerical inconsistency about a member’s attendance.
The Mayor and Council of the City of Atkinson convened a special meeting Sept. 2, 2025, at 7:02 p.m. in the council chambers. Mayor Josh Erickson called the meeting to order and City Clerk/Treasurer Shelly Wieneke recorded the roll.
Councilmember Chuck Asher moved to approve the minutes of the Aug. 4 meeting; Councilmember Helen Olson seconded. The minutes record roll-call ayes from Asher, Olson, Leo Seger, Jerry Osborne and Scott Shane and state that the motion carried.
The council then reviewed the proposed 2025–2026 budget. The minutes record only that the budget was reviewed; they do not include budget figures, amendments, or direction to staff regarding next steps.
Later in the meeting, Councilmember Scott Shane moved to adjourn at 7:38 p.m.; Councilmember Jerry Osborne seconded and the motion is recorded as carried. The adjournment vote is recorded in the minutes as ayes from Olson, Seger, Osborne, Shane and Ron Krysl, while earlier roll call in the same minutes listed Ron Krysl as "absent and not voting." The minutes do not resolve that inconsistency; it appears to be a clerical error in the published record.
The minutes include signature lines for Mayor Josh Erickson and City Clerk/Treasurer Shelly Wieneke and a signed clerk certification that the agenda and materials were publicly posted and available 24 hours before the meeting.
No other substantive discussion, formal motions on ordinances or budget approvals, or public comments are recorded in the minutes.
