Winifred council approves four budget amendments and updates investment signers
Summary
The Winifred Town Council on July 8 approved four fiscal‑year 2024–25 budget amendments totaling $173,830.38 for general, library, museum and airport accounts and authorized new signers on the STIP investment pool.
The Winifred Town Council approved four budget amendments on July 8 to reflect unanticipated revenues and expenses in the 2024–25 fiscal year.
Resolution #2‑2025 increases the general fund revenue line by $76,360.04; Resolution #3‑2025 increases the library fund revenue by $29,089.76; Resolution #4‑2025 increases the museum fund revenue by $26,087.76; and Resolution #8‑2025 increases the airport fund expense line by $42,292.82 to cover unanticipated airport expenses. Council Person Zachary Sharp moved for each amendment and Council Person Rick Baker seconded; all motions passed (vote tallies not specified in the record).
In total, the four amendments account for $173,830.38 in budget changes for the current fiscal year. The council also passed Resolution 9‑2025 to update signers on the STIP investment pool: Kristin Carlstrom will remain a signer and Treasurer Krista Ness and Mayor Shirley Dyer will be added. Zach Sharp moved to accept Resolution 9‑2025 and Rick Baker seconded; the motion passed.
Why it matters: the amendments allocate unanticipated revenues and recognize airport expenses in the current budget, allowing departments and funds to account for new receipts and costs without delaying services or projects. The STIP signer update adds local officials to the town’s investment account authorization.
What happened next: the council moved on to other agenda items; motions are recorded as passed but the meeting minutes do not include roll‑call vote tallies.
