The finance committee voted to forward an ordinance authorizing supplemental appropriations for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. Staff described several line‑item adjustments across funds that will be included in the amendment.

Key items described by staff included additional appropriation for the city’s real estate reassessment contract (timing shifted this year), replacement of two sheriff’s vehicles (approximately $136,000), a replacement trash truck (inventory/insurance recovery noted; roughly $167,000 net), and building reconfiguration costs at 419 North Cameron tied to public safety expansions (approximately $134,000). Parks department supplemental requests include roughly $182,000 for repairs and maintenance (wind damage, painting, skate ramps and part‑time staffing increases to support expanded programs). The parking authority will use reserves for approximately $300,000 of maintenance in the Cameron Street garage and George Washington lot; staff said those are parking authority funds and not general fund reserves.

Staff also listed federal, state and local grant adjustments across multiple funds (for example, circuit court indexing and litter prevention grants, emergency management grant for a mobile command trailer, tree‑planting grant work already completed). Social services’ budget increases reflect state and federal funds and local match for certain facility expansion costs tied to the 419 North Cameron acquisition; staff said about $306,000 of the social services increase is state/federal funds and the remainder local funds for expansion work at 419.

Council members asked for clearer presentation of funding sources by line item. One councilor requested a table breaking out federal, state and local funding for future budget amendments; staff agreed to provide that breakdown for the council meeting.

The committee voted to forward the ordinance and schedule the required public hearing.
