Olanta council: FY budget pending rate study; community events scheduled
Summary
Mayor Welch said the FY budget will be completed after an Eastern Engineer rate study; council reported a yard-of-the-month recognition and discussed the Gator Festival and Main Street's Thursday Night Live sponsorship needs.
Mayor Michael W. Welch told the council he has the information needed to complete the fiscal-year budget but is waiting for a rate study from Eastern Engineer before finalizing the town's budget proposal.
In other business, council recognized Mitchell Sims of 229 Thomas St. as 'Yard of the Month.' Under reports from council, Michelle Bailey (Grants and Economic Development) had 'nothing new' to report and the public safety report was listed as not available.
Council also reviewed upcoming events: organizers said the next Gator Festival is proceeding smoothly and Main Street's Thursday Night Live series is seeking sponsors for the first event planned for April 30, 2026.
Routine procedural actions took place early and at the end of the meeting: Council approved the meeting agenda and minutes for March 5 and March 24 by unanimous motions (movers and seconders recorded on the transcript) and adjourned by motion at the meeting's close.
