ROLL
The Council met in a special meeting on the above mentioned date with the following members
present: Mayor Barbara Peterson; Council Members Jim Murphy, Jim White, and Bob Sansevere;
Representing staff was City Administrator Ron Moorse
Mayor Peterson called the meeting to order at 5:11 P.M.
1. Rescision of Preliminary 2004 Tax Levy and Budget Resolutions, and Adoption of
Revised Tax Levy and Budget - Resolutions No. 5044 and 5044
Moorse reported that, due to a misunderstanding regarding how the loss of State Market
Value Credit Aid was to be calculated into the City's tax levy, the tax levy reflected in the
resolutions adopted at the September 8, 2003 meeting did not correctly reflect the
necessary tax levy amount. The levy amount needs to include the amount of Market
Value Credit Aid, even though the State is not going to pay the Aid to the City. Moorse
provided revised resolutions that both rescinded the initial resolutions and adopted the new
budget and levy amounts.
. Murphy moved, Sansevere seconded, the approval of the Resolution No. 5044 adopting the
proposed 2003 Tax Levy collectible in 2004.
VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0.
Murphy moved, Sansevere seconded, the approval of Resolution No. 5045 to adopt the
proposed 2004 General Fund Budget.
VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0.
