Summary

City staff presented the 2025 budget appropriation ordinance and the council approved its second reading; staff listed total general-fund appropriations of $11,380,068.60 and described line items for public safety, public works and culture and recreation.

City staff walked the council through the 2025 budget appropriation ordinance during the finance agenda item, detailing major line items and changes. Staff said total general-fund appropriations are listed at $11,380,068.60; public-safety appropriations reflected a roughly 3% increase for law enforcement, while culture and recreation accounts were adjusted to separate the golf course and community/event center. Staff emphasized a conservative revenue estimate that accounts for the possibility of a sales-tax repeal.

After questions and brief discussion about event-center advertising and golf-course staffing, a councilmember moved to approve the second reading of the 2025 budget appropriation ordinance; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. No roll-call tally was recorded in the public transcript. Staff indicated the budget materials and detailed line-item reports were available for review.
