Town of Gay council unanimously approves amended water budget
Summary
The Town of Gay council voted unanimously to accept an amended water budget that corrects a Tank Fund line to $1,200 per year, removes a duplicate mileage line, and adds funds for higher water testing and sample delivery fees.
The Town of Gay council unanimously approved an amended water budget at its Aug. 11, 2025 meeting.
Sharon Richmond, the town clerk, told the council that clerical errors had been corrected in the draft budget: a separate mileage line was removed because mileage is included in payroll expense; the Tank Fund expense was corrected to $1,200.00 per year; Office Expense was increased to cover overnight delivery of monthly water samples; Water Test costs were raised because EPD is now conducting the town's testing; and Maintenance/Mowing funds were increased due to recent heavy rain. Financial documents were presented and there were no questions.
Council member Askvig moved to accept the amended budget and the financial documents; Council member Watts seconded the motion. The council voted unanimously to approve the amendment.
The action completes the council's budget adjustments for the town water account as described at the meeting; the council did not identify additional changes or set further procedural steps during the discussion.
