Summary

The council approved two budget amendments: $50,000 to cover snow-season overtime and plow repairs (split into $20,000 overtime and $30,000 repairs) and $3,577 to cover retirement/severance items. The amendments passed by voice vote.

Deputy administrator Ben presented two budget amendments prepared by the finance director: $50,000 to cover overages from a severe winter (about $4,000 already over budget in snow overtime) and an additional $30,000 to cover plow repairs; and a separate $3,577 amendment to cover personnel adjustments tied to retirements and severance.

Councilors moved and seconded the combined resolution and approved both amendments by voice vote without recorded roll-call tallies. Staff said the snow amendment should leave a small cushion for the remainder of the season and that any additional needs could be addressed with a future amendment.
