Live Oak council sets tentative budget workshop and hearings, proposes 9.25 rate
Summary
City staff and council members set a July 28 workshop and tentative/final budget hearings for Sept. 8 and Sept. 22 and discussed holding the millage at 9.25, with a motion made and seconded; a formal roll-call vote was not recorded in the transcript.
The Live Oak City Council set a July 28 budget workshop and scheduled a tentative budget hearing for Sept. 8 and a final hearing for Sept. 22, each at 5:30 p.m., and discussed holding the tax rate at 9.25.
Tammy, a city staff member, presented the tentative dates and said they must comply with county and local school calendars before the dates are finalized. The council’s procedural officer confirmed the correct tentative hearing date as Sept. 8 and the final hearing as Sept. 22, and participants agreed to a July 28 workshop at 4:30 p.m.
A council member moved to adopt the same rate used last year, 9.25, and to set the July 28 workshop, the Sept. 8 tentative hearing and the Sept. 22 final hearing; another council member seconded the motion. The motion and second were recorded in the discussion but the transcript does not include a roll-call vote or the final tally.
The scheduling discussion emphasized verifying the county and school calendars so the hearings do not conflict with other required public-notice timelines. The tentative hearing and rate proposal will be addressed at the scheduled workshop and the Sept. 8 hearing if no calendar conflicts arise.
The council did not record a final adoption of the rate in the available transcript; the item remains on the council’s upcoming agenda for public hearing and any final vote.
