River Ridge previews FY2025 budget hearing; board approves minutes and schedules Aug. 27 adoption hearing
Summary
The board discussed the FY2024/25 budget and five-year capital plan, considered guardhouse design and fund transfers, accepted unaudited financials as of June 30, 2024, approved amended June 25 minutes, and set the FY2025 budget adoption hearing for Aug. 27, 2024.
District Manager Chuck Adams asked if any further adjustments were needed to the FY2024/25 budget beyond Supervisor Blumenthal’s updated five-year Capital Improvement Plan and noted the budget remained solvent. Discussion included design and permitting for guardhouses, proposals for guardhouse construction, the possibility of transferring funds into cash-sweep accounts, acquiring a traffic-hawk device, and scheduling the public hearing for adoption of the FY2025 budget.
Mrs. Adams presented the unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2024 and responded to questions about the check register. The board approved amendments to the June 25, 2024 meeting minutes (including corrected name spellings and a title change) and then approved the minutes on a motion by Mr. Blumenthal, seconded by Mr. Gilman. Staff noted a traffic-project sign had been installed and flagged the need to incorporate decorative 10-foot poles if more signage is authorized.
The board confirmed the next meeting on Aug. 27, 2024 at 1:00 p.m. for adoption of the FY2025 budget; four supervisors confirmed attendance in person and Supervisor Schultz confirmed he will attend by phone. Mr. Twombly asked staff to improve pre-meeting communications, and staff agreed to provide periodic updates on major projects going forward.
Next steps: staff to prepare final budget materials and related supporting documents for the Aug. 27 adoption hearing and to continue refining the five-year capital plan.
