Cairo tables $121,789 budget amendment tied to de-obligated FEMA funds
Summary
The Town Board tabled a proposed amendment to the 2025 budget to repay $121,789.37 in FEMA de-obligated funds from a 2016 DHSES obligation; the minutes record the amendment as 'TABLED' and no vote tally is provided.
The Town Board of the Town of Cairo tabled a proposed amendment to the 2025 budget concerning de-obligated FEMA funds at its Sept. 17, 2025 meeting.
According to the resolution text in the minutes, the original FEMA payment obligated to the town from DHSES in 2016 totaled $265,907.52; DHSES later de-obligated $121,789.37. The proposed amendment would have adjusted the budget by charging $121,789.37 to DA-8760-4 (Emergency Disaster Work Contractual) and offsetting the amount using the highway fund balance to DA-1062 (Town Payment to Reduce Tax Levy).
The minutes state the item as "TABLED." The resolution text does not record a roll-call vote in the minutes for this action; the entry is marked 'TABLED' without a recorded outcome beyond that procedural note.
Because the amendment was tabled, the town must revisit the proposal before any accounting changes are made to the 2025 budget.
No dates for future consideration are listed in the minutes.
