The Eagle Grove City Council reviewed an amended city budget, as presented by City Clerk & Chief Financial Officer Susan Maier, for the current fiscal year at their phone conference meeting this past Monday night. They also set a public hearing for the May 18 meeting to take comments and act on the amendment.
The document shows an additional revenue transfer in of $1.1 million, with additional expenditures out of $1.117 million. This changes the ending fund balance from nearly $3.070 million to just over $3.052 million. “It’s a transfer between funds, and includes cemetery labor and maintenance, city hall software and computer upgrades,” stated Maier. “There will be no increase in tax levies to be paid in the current fiscal year. Any increase in expenditures set out will be met by the increased non-property tax revenues and cash balances not budgeted or considered in the current budget.”
The Council approved payment application no. 3 to Rasch Construction for $80,416.07 for the Rotary Addition-plat 1 subdivision in southeast Eagle Grove.
In other action the Council:
-approved building permits for Dave Poncin (sidewalk), Mike Kahle (fence), Ken Baker (porch), Steve Cram (fence) and Ryan Pedersen (10×12 building);
-approved beer/liquor licenses for Fareway and Kum & Go.
