Council approves Budget Amendment to Segregate Police Expenses, Reallocates $14,300 for Equipment
Summary
Seven Points City Council adopted Ordinance #388 to amend the FY2025–2026 budget, segregating police department expenses and reallocating a $14,300 general-office subtotal to police equipment and maintenance; the measure passed 4-0.
The Seven Points City Council on May 28 adopted Ordinance #388, amending the FY2025–2026 budget to segregate Police Department expenses and reallocate $14,300 that had been included under general office expenses.
Council Member Mary Wennerstrom said the April-adopted budget included a $14,300 subtotal for general office expenses that should be designated for police equipment and equipment maintenance already expended in fiscal year 2026. A motion by Mayor Pro-Tem Valerie Bahm to approve Ordinance #388 carried 4-0, with LaJohnna Wells seconding.
The amendment does not change the total general fund expenses; it reclassifies the $14,300 line so police purchases and maintenance are shown as police department expenditures. The council did not identify additional line-item changes or fiscal impacts beyond the reallocation at the meeting. The council adopted the ordinance after a brief presentation and vote; no further public comment or amendment was recorded.
