City Administrator Julie Wilkerson appears in the minutes as present and is listed in the meeting signature block. The minutes direct the clerk to file the adopted budget and certification with the State and County Auditor; the clerk is not named in the minutes.
The minutes contain an internal timing inconsistency: they record the hearing as closed at 5:32 p.m. and also record the meeting as adjourned at 5:20 p.m. The minutes do not reconcile those times. No public comments were recorded during the budget hearing.
