Alma City’s commission handled several routine but formal items in a single meeting, approving vendor and procurement adjustments, accepting reports and setting public hearings.

Key outcomes: the commission corrected a prior vehicle procurement to substitute a 2026 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor from Gorno Ford (amount cited $449,946) after noting a clerical error in the earlier vendor listing; it approved a sole-source purchase of shelving and end panels for the Elmo Public Library children’s section from Library and Design Associates for $42,875, funded through local fundraising; and the commission ratified three city investments (one U.S. Treasury bond and two certificates of deposit). The finance report for October 2025 and the fiscal 2025 audit results were received by resolution.

The commission also set two public hearings for Tuesday, Dec. 23, 2025 at 6 p.m. (Richmond Street special assessment district No. 3 and Rosedale Street special assessment district No. 6) regarding construction of sanitary sewer service leads; staff explained the city will pay 50% of costs and homeowners the remaining 50% for lateral work. The commission approved appropriations to pay bills, moved into a closed session by vote (stating no action was anticipated on return) and subsequently adjourned after returning from the executive session.

The items were adopted by voice vote during the meeting; the transcript records motions, voice votes and acceptance of staff reports but does not list individual roll-call tallies for those specific routine resolutions.
