The Kewanee City Council on May 13 approved the city's FY2019–20 budget, which shows a $258,000 shortfall.
Mayor Gary Moore said the city will need to "get creative on ways to generate revenue," as council members voted to adopt the budget. Council Member Mike Komnick moved to approve the budget and Council Member Steve Faber seconded; the motion passed on a 5–0 roll call.
The budget resolution (No. 5156) was considered alongside other routine items on the council's agenda. The minutes record the dollar amount of the deficit but do not list specific cuts or new revenue measures to close the gap; the council did not attach additional direction in the meeting minutes about revenue sources or a timetable for deficit reduction.
The adoption concludes the council's formal action to set spending authority for the coming fiscal year. The minutes show the council approved the budget by motion and roll call; further implementation steps or departmental allocations were not detailed in the public minutes.
