Bowdle council adopts $65,510 supplemental appropriation ordinance
Summary
The City of Bowdle council unanimously approved Supplemental Appropriations Ordinance No. 2024-09 on Jan. 6, 2025, moving $65,510 from the general fund unassigned balance to cover administrative, airport and streets costs, including a $60,000 allocation to the finance office.
The City of Bowdle council on Jan. 6 unanimously adopted Supplemental Appropriations Ordinance No. 2024-09, transferring $65,510 from General Fund unassigned funds to several line items the city said were needed to meet municipal obligations. Margaret Bobby moved to approve the ordinance on second reading and Mike Gunderson seconded; all members present voted in favor.
The ordinance itemizes the transfer as follows: $125 to Executive Council; $60,000 to the administration/Finance Officer line; $385 to the airport; and $5,000 to the streets department, for a total of $65,510 sourced from General Fund unassigned funds. The ordinance record shows first reading on Dec. 16, 2024, second reading and approval on Jan. 6, 2025, and publication scheduled for Jan. 16, 2025.
Mayor Rick Boschee presided over the meeting and Finance Officer Carrie Poirier is listed as attesting to the ordinance in the minutes. The council’s vote was unanimous among the six members present (Rick Boschee; Rex Gab; Mike Gunderson; Darryn Barnhardt; Amber Shaykett; Margaret Bobby). The ordinance was approved for publication per the city’s regular ordinance procedures.
The action reallocated unassigned general fund resources rather than authorizing new revenue. The council did not record further debate in the minutes; next procedural steps listed are publication and implementation in the city accounting records.
