Council approves emergency transfers between funds, monthly bills and financial report
Summary
Council passed an emergency ordinance to transfer appropriations between funds and approved monthly bills and the monthly financial report. Clerk-Treasurer Annette Geissman offered to make weekly bills available for member review; the solicitor advised bills must be approved within the year they are paid.
The Lodi Village Council adopted an emergency ordinance transferring items between funds and adjusting appropriation items within funds; the council suspended the three-reading rule and approved the ordinance unanimously (motion by Miller; second by Ridenour). The minutes do not list the specific line-item transfers.
Under committee requests, Council approved the monthly bills and accepted the monthly financial report (motions by Miller with various seconders; unanimous roll calls). Clerk-Treasurer Annette Geissman told council that "if council members wish to review the weekly bills before the check run is completed, she will arrange for members to come into the office to review the bills each week." Village Solicitor Ted Lesiak advised that bills need to be approved sometime within the year they are paid.
