Council adopts e-file tax-services contract as emergency; $6,000 appropriation

Council approved Ordinance 132-2026, accepting a proposal from "insource solutions group, Inc." to provide remote e-file and related tax services and appropriating $6,000 for those services as an emergency measure. The ordinance allows the mayor and the director of finance to execute a professional-services agreement with the vendor.

Administration said the city previously offered vendor-provided e-file services but paused them after vendor safety-protocol changes; the vendor has repaired the issues and the administration recommended restoring the offering to let taxpayers submit documentation remotely. The ordinance passed by voice vote following a motion and a second; council recorded an affirmative voice vote and the measure was adopted as an emergency.
