At its Dec. 8 meeting, the Medina finance committee approved a set of year-end, routine finance items intended to keep city operations funded into 2025.

Staff explained the tax-advance request is an annual resolution required under the Ohio Revised Code. Keith said the request is a standard filing necessary to receive tax advances. The committee also approved budget amendments staff described as year-end adjustments to get the city through the end of the fiscal year.

Chief Kenny presented three blanket expenditures for police operations: a purchase for law-enforcement equipment from Vance Law Enforcement, a uniform blanket through Akron Uniform, and a Huntington National Bank card blanket for equipment purchases throughout the year. Each item was moved and approved by voice vote during the finance meeting.
