Finance director reports July revenue increase; payroll figure in transcript appears mis‑transcribed

Braidwood City Council · August 26, 2026

Summary

Staff reported July government fund revenues of $5,590,000, expenditures of $1,850,000 and a net increase in fund balance of $833,000. A payroll motion passed but the payroll amount recorded in the transcript appears to be a transcription error and is flagged for clarification.

Finance staff presented the July financial report, saying the city recognized $5,590,000 in revenue across government funds and $1,850,000 in total governmental expenditures, producing a net increase in fund balance of $833,000. The finance representative noted restricted and enterprise fund balances and said the full audit will begin September 6 with an expected December completion.

The council also approved routine motions for payment of bills and payroll. The payroll motion passed on a roll‑call vote; however, the payroll amount printed in the meeting transcript reads as $102,301,102,310.71, which is implausible and appears to be a transcription or clerical error. Staff materials and vouchers should be checked for the correct payroll figure.
