Council adds work session as staff delays initial budget presentation
Summary
Staff said they were not ready to present an initial budget; council agreed to add a work session on Sept. 9 (or 10) and to keep Sept. 28 available as a fallback to meet the statutory preliminary-levy deadline.
City staff told council they would not be prepared to present the initial budget at the next scheduled meeting and asked the council to approve an additional work session on Sept. 9 or 10; council agreed to Sept. 9. Staff also asked the council to hold Sept. 28 as a fallback date in case a preliminary levy cannot be reached on the earlier dates, citing the state statute requirement for a preliminary levy by the end of September.
Councilors and staff discussed meeting start times and availability; the additional work session was scheduled and staff said they will return with budget materials as soon as they are prepared. No levy or budget numbers were adopted at the meeting.
