Lyons council adopts Ordinance No. 797 updating city fee and tax schedule
Summary
The Lyons City Council passed Ordinance No. 797 to establish an updated fee-and-tax schedule; the ordinance takes effect for July consumption billed in August after the council suspended the three-day reading requirement and approved the ordinance on June 8, 2026.
The Lyons City Council passed Ordinance No. 797 on June 8, approving a revised schedule of fees and taxes for permits, services, licenses and other municipal charges.
Mayor Kyle Brink introduced the ordinance, and Councilmember Matthew Carr moved for its passage after the council voted to suspend the statutory rule requiring three separate readings. Carr’s motion, seconded by Councilmember Jay Maddox, passed on a 3–0 roll call with Councilmember Kyle Phillips absent. The ordinance is set to take effect for July consumption billed in August.
Council provided no additional detail in the minutes about specific fee changes or line-item adjustments; the minutes state the ordinance repeals conflicting ordinances and will be published in pamphlet form. The document establishing the new rates is available in the city clerk’s office as part of the official record.
The passage follows routine municipal procedure for immediate enactment when the council suspends the multi-day reading requirement. No public comments or objections about the ordinance were recorded at the June 8 meeting.
