Mattawan council reviews 2026–2027 budget proposal, makes adjustments; no final adoption recorded
Summary
At a March 23 special meeting, the Village of Mattawan council heard a presentation of the proposed 2026–2027 fiscal year budget from Village Manager McGrew and Clerk Jolie Storm-Artis, made adjustments to the proposal and did not record a final adoption; routine motions to excuse an absent member and approve the agenda passed unanimously.
The Village of Mattawan council met on March 23, 2026, to review the proposed 2026–2027 fiscal year budget presented by Village Manager McGrew and Clerk Jolie Storm-Artis. The special meeting began at 5:02 PM and concluded at 6:51 PM.
Manager McGrew and Clerk Storm-Artis presented the draft budget and the council discussed proposed adjustments. The minutes record that council members debated and made changes to the proposal, but they do not show a formal vote to adopt the budget during this session. The minutes do not specify the dollar amounts or line-item changes discussed; those details were recorded as "discussion and adjustments" without further breakdown in the minutes.
Before the budget discussion, Council member McLean moved to excuse Member Monroe due to a prescheduled personal commitment; the motion was seconded by Daniel and recorded as approved with all members voting in favor. Council member Begeman then moved to approve the meeting agenda as presented; Daniel seconded and the motion likewise passed unanimously.
The meeting record notes there were no limited public comments during the agenda item review and no new business or communications were added. The special meeting adjourned without objection at 6:51 PM. The minutes were later stamped "Council Approved 4/13/26" and bear a council president signature line and the clerk's signature for Jolie Storm-Artis.
The budget will remain a matter for the council until a subsequent meeting records a formal adoption or additional public documentation provides the finalized figures.
