Jerome board approves supplemental appropriation after $90,000 FY2026 overspend
Summary
The Village of Jerome adopted Ordinance 26-23 to make supplemental appropriations after officials reported the village exceeded FY2026 appropriations by $90,000; the motion passed with Trustee Lael recorded as the lone NO vote.
President Mike Lopez asked the board to consider Ordinance 26-23, a supplemental appropriation for expenses through the fiscal year ending April 30, 2026. Executive Assistant Steve Roth told the board that "the Village has spent more than appropriated in FY 26 by $90,000.00," and said the ordinance is intended to formally cover that overspend.
Trustee Leigh Irons moved to approve Ordinance 26-23; Trustee Ralph Irons seconded. The minutes record that on roll call "all voted AYE; except Trustee Lael voted NO," and the motion passed. The minutes do not specify which line items were overdrawn beyond Roth's $90,000 figure.
The ordinance was adopted as recorded in the minutes; the board did not publish additional detail on the specific accounts affected during the public portion of the meeting. Any operational effects, such as transfers or reserve adjustments, were not described in the public minutes.
