Finance Officer Elizabeth Lattime reviewed the Town of Milton's November 2025 finances, reporting a General Fund statement balance of $43,464.68 and a General Fund balance of $53,525.84. For the Water‑Sewer Fund she reported a statement balance of $92,707.14 and a Water‑Sewer balance of $79,224.44. The NC Capital Management Trust savings account statement balance was $54,658.97 as of Nov. 30, 2025.
Lattime noted utility‑fund highlights: "TWO ACCOUNTS DISCONNECTED IN JULY FOR NON‑PAYMENT," the minutes state. The financial presentation preceded routine agenda business in which the council approved the meeting agenda and minutes from Nov. 11 and Oct. 14.
Under new business, the council set the town office holiday schedule (closed Dec. 25 and Jan. 1; open Dec. 30) and specified alternative payment options for residents (slide payment under the office door or wait until the following scheduled day). The council also approved the 2026 hydrant‑flushing schedule (Feb. 9, Apr. 5, June work to be done by Milton Volunteer Fire Department, Aug. 3, Oct. 5, Dec. 7). Commissioner Robert Palmer agreed to manage trash‑can maintenance until the Beautification Committee and John Wallace are consulted.
The council concluded with a brief EDC report from Town Clerk Shirley Wilson and adjourned.
