Melbourne council approves hazard mitigation plan and routine administrative resolutions
Summary
At its Jan. 12 meeting the council adopted multiple administrative resolutions including the Melbourne Hazard Mitigation Plan, naming depositories, bank organization resolutions, annual appointments and designating the official newspaper.
The Melbourne City Council approved a package of administrative resolutions during its Jan. 12, 2026 meeting, including adoption of the Melbourne Hazard Mitigation Plan and several financial and personnel housekeeping resolutions.
On a motion by Council member Lucas Hauser, seconded by Council member Beth Opperman, the council approved resolutions that name official depositories, adopt the city's hazard mitigation plan, authorize organizational resolutions with MidWest One Bank, make annual appointments, and designate the city's official newspaper. The roll call votes on these resolutions were recorded by the clerk.
Council also approved a separate resolution (2026-01-06) to transfer any remaining Fire Department budget balance after June 30, 2026, into an interest-bearing account earmarked to save for turnout gear; that motion passed on a 5-0 roll call vote.
The resolutions are administrative in nature and aim to formalize financial processes and emergency-planning guidance; City Clerk Mary Pothast will complete paperwork tied to those approvals.
