At its Dec. 17, 2024 meeting, the Strasburg Village Council approved the village’s 2025 temporary appropriations and authorized payment of the November bills.
Finance Chairman Wes Hostetler moved to approve temporary appropriations for calendar year 2025 in the amount of $11,853,116.86; Martin Zehnder seconded and the motion carried on a unanimous roll-call vote. The minutes record the approved amount but do not provide a line-item breakdown.
Earlier in the meeting council reviewed and approved the November financial statement, the Unified Bank statement and the SSB worksheet, and authorized payment of bills totaling $285,169.10. The motion to approve the bills was made by Wes Hostetler, seconded by Martin Zehnder, and passed unanimously.
The minutes also note that $12,225.00 of the $20,000 allocated for the 2024 sidewalk program has been spent, and that the village will continue related infrastructure planning, including a meeting with the village engineer on Dec. 30 about waterline replacement and wastewater treatment plant expansion.
Next steps: the approved temporary appropriations provide short-term budget authority for early 2025 expenditures; the council did not record a detailed appropriation schedule in the minutes.
