Greenwood council adopts 2024 tax-levy ordinance and adds fair-housing chapter
Summary
The Greenwood City Council adopted Bill 2024-80 establishing the 2024 tax levies and passed Bill 2024-81 to add Chapter 250 (fair housing) to the city code; the tax-levy second reading included a roll-call passage recorded in the transcript.
The Greenwood City Council approved two ordinances Tuesday: the 2024 tax-levy ordinance and a new fair-housing chapter.
On second reading, the council passed Bill 2024-80 (to become Ordinance 2024-3095), which establishes the city's 2024 tax levies on real and personal property within Greenwood's corporate limits. The second reading was performed aloud by the clerk (Clerk, Speaker 4) and the motion for passage generated a sequence of recorded "Aye" responses during the roll call, after which the chair declared the motion carried.
The council also passed Bill 2024-81, which will become Ordinance 2024-3096, adding Chapter 250 (fair housing) to the Greenwood city code. The clerk read both readings of the bill and the council approved passage; multiple council members voiced their support during the recorded votes.
The actions on the levy and the fair-housing chapter were taken during the formal business portion of the meeting. No substantive public testimony was recorded on either ordinance in the meeting transcript. The ordinances are recorded as adopted in the meeting and will be added to the city's codified ordinances.
