Burns Harbor council advances and records approval of Resolution 2026-09 to fund volunteer benefits
Summary
The council considered Resolution 2026-09 to transfer $416 from General Fire (4-311) and $5,000 from Travel Expenses (4-131) into Volunteer Benefits (4-342.1). A motion and second were recorded and the transcript shows affirmative roll-call responses for several council members; the transcript does not show a complete roll-call tally for every seat.
The Burns Harbor Town Council considered and moved to approve Resolution 2026-09, a 2026 budget transfer to pay a premium and bolster volunteer benefits. The Moderator read the resolution language and the account transfers: $416 from General fire (account 4-311) to Volunteer Benefits (4-342.1), and $5,000 from Travel Expenses (account 4-131) to Volunteer Benefits (4-342.1).
The Moderator said, “I’ll make a motion to approve resolution 20 20 six-nine, party requirement fund transfer,” and a presenter seconded with the single-word response recorded as “2nd.” The Moderator then requested a roll-call vote. The transcript segments explicitly record affirmative votes by Councilman Rauch, Councilman Macquarrick and Councilman Bibiari.
The transcript indicates the motion was carried in this meeting, but the provided excerpt records only those individual affirmative votes and does not show a complete roll-call showing every council member’s vote. The record therefore confirms the resolution’s passage as presented in these segments but notes that a full, seat-by-seat tally is not available in the supplied transcript.
The resolution moves specific budgeted amounts into the volunteer-benefits line item; the transcript does not specify further implementing actions or timelines beyond adoption.
