Council confirms flexibility if budget is not approved at first hearing
Summary
Council members asked whether there would be time to adjust the calendar if the budget failed on Aug. 25; the chair confirmed adjustments and additional meetings could be scheduled, emphasizing flexibility in the process.
A council member asked whether there would be enough time to address the budget if it did not pass on the Aug. 25 hearing; Speaker 2 asked, “So are we gonna have enough time in case the budget doesn't get passed on the 25th,” and Speaker 1 replied, “Yes.”
Speaker 1 and Speaker 2 discussed the calendar’s flexibility and the ability to make adjustments. The exchange reinforced that the Aug. 25 date is a target rather than a firm deadline and that the council intends to schedule follow-up meetings if further deliberation is needed. The council did not adopt any formal contingency motion or timetable during the discussion.
