Summary

Clerk presented a first reading of a supplemental budget to create a golf-course fund; council also approved transferring prior-year golf-course profit into a new reserve fund and discussed equipment budgeting and clubhouse planning.

The council held a first reading of a supplemental budget to create a dedicated golf-course fund, moving budgeted items for the course and clubhouse out of the general fund and into the new fund.

Clerk explained the reallocation of line items from the budget adopted earlier and noted transfers from the general fund consistent with the original budget. Councilors discussed equipment needs and a planned mower purchase that remains budgeted but not yet purchased.

Separately, the council moved and approved a motion to transfer last year's golf-course profit—reported in the meeting as $5,347.12—into the new golf-course reserve fund. The clerk called roll and the motion passed by recorded votes.

Council members also discussed clubhouse planning, maintenance needs and potential contractor bids for building work; staff will bring quotes and further budget detail to a future meeting.
