Commission sets follow-up special meetings as budget filing deadline looms
Summary
Staff scheduled a Wednesday special meeting to review outstanding LEC details and finalize the preliminary budget so the city meets county filing deadlines; commissioners requested alternative times for availability and staff agreed to provide scenario modeling by then.
Staff told the commission a special meeting is set for Wednesday at noon to bring in the Lake Region Law Enforcement Center and review outstanding items so the commission can approve a preliminary budget for public notice.
"We have our statutory deadlines, we gotta have everything to the county by the 10th, which is Monday," staff said, urging timely decisions. Staff said they expect preliminary insurer numbers in August and final numbers in October but need to set the public hearing and preliminary approval now to meet publishing and filing requirements.
One commissioner said Wednesday morning conflicts with another meeting but offered 1 p.m. as an alternative; staff said they will circulate invites and materials and may call an additional special meeting if further direction is required before the county deadline. The mayor adjourned the special meeting and said the commission's next regular meeting will be at 5:30.
