Resolutions R0421206-1 and R0421206-2 were approved to incorporate library and cemetery funds into the city budget under separate categories and authorize city officers to access accounts; both passed unanimously.

The Lanark City Council voted April 21 to fold the library and cemetery funds into the city’s budget as separate line items and to formally authorize the City Treasurer, City Clerk, and Mayor to access and manage those accounts per banking requirements. Alderperson Brad Knutti moved both resolutions; Alderperson Mark Macomber seconded the cemetery resolution. Both votes were unanimous (6–0).
