Clerk Treasurer seeks advertisement of Riverboat and ARP additional appropriations totaling over $1.5 million
Summary
Clerk Treasurer Rosemary Brown asked the council Jan. 5 to advertise requests for additional appropriations from the Riverboat Fund and multiple ARP accounts; the council approved advertising the items for public comment.
Clerk Treasurer Rosemary Brown asked the Common Council on Jan. 5 for permission to advertise several additional appropriations drawn from the Riverboat Fund and ARP accounts.
The items listed in the minutes were: Riverboat Fund #365 Other Contractual $350,000 and #444 Other Equipment $129,100; ARP Fund #315 ARP - HELP MATCH $960,200, #320 ARP - MARKET STREET PLAZA $21,083, #440 ARP - PUBLIC SAFETY EQUIPMENT $48,598, #443 ARP - POLICE EQUIPMENT $37,400, and #445 ARP - DOT/MVH EQUIP $23,000. Clerk Treasurer Rosemary Brown requested permission to advertise these appropriations for public notice as the next step in the statutory process.
Councilwoman Sharon McQueen moved to approve advertising the appropriations; the transcript records that the motion was seconded but does not specify which councilwoman seconded. The minutes state all council members voted "yes." The transcript does not record that the council approved the expenditures themselves; it records permission to advertise the additional appropriation requests for subsequent consideration and public comment.
Next steps: the advertised appropriation requests will be published for required notice and return to the council for formal action at a later meeting if the council chooses to adopt any of the requests.
