A council member said city departments currently show pay differences for equivalent positions and asked that the council either commission a pay study or meet with department heads to resolve disparities. The councilor also asked that a benefits committee be established to review the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS) participation and to consider state insurance options.

Council members voiced agreement to pursue those next steps during the announcements portion of the meeting. The discussion was framed as guidance to staff and as a planning directive for the next budget cycle; no formal motion or ordinance was made at this meeting to allocate funds for a study or for benefits changes.

The request to study pay equity and form a benefits committee is forward-looking: it asks staff and council members to research and plan, but any concrete changes to pay scales, retirement participation, or insurance offerings would require separate formal action and potential budget authority in a future meeting.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City Council Special Called Meeting - Budget - June 2025","oneSentenceSummary","At the June 24 meeting council members requested a pay study to address pay inequities across departments and asked staff to form a benefits committee to review retirement (TCRS) and possibly state insurance options.","taxTitle","City Council Meetings, Shelbyville, Bedford County, Tennessee","taxId",70967,"location","Tennessee","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6188747,"Shelbyville council approves resolution funding nonprofits for FY 2025'26",232,1417000,1649000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5062036-ed9ecc397d286ddf77b90dd60e3d92c4&start=1417&end=1649","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5062036-ed9ecc397d286ddf77b90dd60e3d92c4/thumbnail_1417000.jpg","/articles/6188747/Tennessee/Shelbyville-council-approves-resolution-funding-nonprofits-for-FY-202526","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6188747-c74cded7b1f851ad83abf8b889a84283/orig.mp4?Expires=1771190336&Signature=PLX5U6cgT6weZ46SjYNb~T-FyAn2L0znU82V6idEb6Rzh2juX0y2bIfxr5Jp9gbQ0S1Cm52J6uzbG9BUdWVj8hGCXG~TBOxm7NQCpFqecOT0o9zNVs~rCqPxSDQQY81g2O1x4HUDrFplRMPGHVpFLlmOg4FV8xEWZ0VXhOhCw5A-yUCmP1ez584rXvKN-fsuoTW4mOBIdb3gxZ-WSJZhhL~xNZlk3M1CiYy1~QE4BBDbnaMDFATA2l0hlpWyfv~wieeRNaphjaxW7DhCUxxvP1jmmox5~sB9KkQxplsOHSFhiFoXHiGNhUaL9cMgIxlK4mazaFHNQsV8crdF1rU2pQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Shelbyville City Council on June 24 approved a resolution authorizing appropriations to nonprofit organizations for fiscal year 2025'26.

The resolution was described on the agenda as authorizing appropriations for nonprofit organizations for fiscal year 2025'26. The meeting record does not include specific dollar amounts, a list of recipient organizations, or conditions attached to the appropriations; those details were not specified during the public hearing or the council discussion at this meeting.

By approving the resolution, the council authorized the appropriations as outlined in the resolution document on the agenda; staff and council did not elaborate on implementation steps or reporting requirements during the meeting.","The council approved a resolution authorizing appropriations to nonprofit organizations for fiscal year 2025'26; the resolution passed by roll-call vote after a public hearing with no speakers.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6188753,"Council tables placeholder ordinance to amend FY 2024'25 budget",85,1517000,1602000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5062036-ed9ecc397d286ddf77b90dd60e3d92c4&start=1517&end=1602","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5062036-ed9ecc397d286ddf77b90dd60e3d92c4/thumbnail_1517000.jpg","/articles/6188753/Tennessee/Council-tables-placeholder-ordinance-to-amend-FY-202425-budget","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6188753-899782097442455d8ba1f22d928d56e7/orig.mp4?Expires=1771190336&Signature=CnG0W5A9NqqrUT-y7SgNspGnROdubBywZ28L4dqhxxbpukKfZNQD1LkrtazXGg3M193XqvtW2YxVaksh33cd1v9tWYeoqWSLaL0RIBpyC7s3Bp6AZYMk6kjfX4aRRN1LEvWr3r7DeZzubsOWWX0uNDdpTuS6ODNZhC1BouQDDYLvnQAUETI4y0gDkh20Vj3EdxDojrK0BRt1Q35my6QI4bvfRnaxZrDeM8~RMkAi1k-8ppHme~szDMt6PUs2kCkOGq7Qt60-UzRmXaD7L2R3oPhBmE4TTtXHdH9-YItZt9Ot86xqToURDIcXxu7NShk~bPJU7-zPJDEmrF3Jrcp7Qg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Shelbyville City Council on June 24 voted to table indefinitely an ordinance that had been placed on the agenda as a placeholder for final amendments to the adopted FY 2024'25 budget.

City staff explained the item had been added in case late amendments were needed for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, but no additional amendments were required. The council moved to table the ordinance indefinitely; a roll-call vote recorded unanimous support for tabling.

The ordinance in question was described on the agenda as \"an ordinance to make final amendments to the adopted budget ordinance as amended of the City of Shelbyville, Tennessee, various funds for the fiscal year 2024'25, the period ending 06/30/2025.\" Council members and staff clarified at the meeting that the item was a placeholder and not needed following recently approved final amendments.

Tabling the item means the council took no substantive budget action on FY 2024'25 at this meeting and left the placeholder item inactive unless it is restored to a future agenda.","Council members voted to table indefinitely an ordinance that had been placed as a placeholder for any final amendments to the FY 2024'25 adopted budget; staff said no further amendments were needed.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6188758,"Shelbyville council adopts FY 2025–26 budget and tax rate",112,1357000,1469000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5062036-ed9ecc397d286ddf77b90dd60e3d92c4&start=1357&end=1469","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5062036-ed9ecc397d286ddf77b90dd60e3d92c4/thumbnail_1357000.jpg","/articles/6188758/Tennessee/Shelbyville-council-adopts-FY-202526-budget-and-tax-rate","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6188758-d6f4586e5235335153804b564488ba1e/orig.mp4?Expires=1771190336&Signature=juzm8hrrEgcTFiOJgqOObDAC35mtLgRbztc6rPbGSZBpNewwSHhdolRS1btdYGJl7PlNUq949yC2xCpxEW5S0nEriWWL6bZCQa1DSPHzdWT~8VGPAOj7G53cJR2Fm0rngGDyqL0LVugmMPF09zLMoas7fJ7uRXEQZLN~4HDOVsVdoTgixAqBZc~dn2QsVi6NjweLsI8ftxCpr1Vbf~Sd12FpUelS1-RyUxaN6BcryKyq7hA36TRXhcPMJTWU7P-JCxeo-yJQTcJWnxaNKqtdsjrx3G-kfp2o2STSn~w5YXN5Sbl06EBM3A-3wfFGRclNDcvkUfuQk4KKHeFlaJlQ1w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Shelbyville City Council on June 24 adopted the city's annual budget and tax rate for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2026, after a public hearing at the council's special call meeting.
