Summary

The council set a public hearing for the next meeting to amend the capital budget and reduce project 1224 (playground and facilities) by $195,465 after anticipated grant revenue did not materialize.

Mayor Safford told the council the administration must set a public hearing to amend the capital budget and reduce project 1224 (playground and facilities) by $195,465 due to a reduction in expected grant funding. The mayor confirmed the hearing will be scheduled at the next council meeting (Sept. 17 at 7 p.m., correcting an earlier Sept. 14 date on the draft agenda).

Council members noted the reduction reflects a shortfall in anticipated grant revenue rather than a new programmatic change; the hearing will give the public an opportunity to comment on the amendment before any final vote. No final budget vote occurred at this meeting.
