Council amends Resolution 2025-20 to correct fund source for prior fire appropriation

Lebanon — The Lebanon City Council voted to amend Resolution 2025-20 and to reapprove it with a corrected fund source after a council member identified an error in the original discussion.

According to the transcript, the council had previously approved a $45,000 appropriation requested by Chief Chuck Batts in July; during that earlier approval a council member misspoke and said the funds should come from Fund 1102 (general), while the resolution itself listed Fund 4402 (CCD) as the intended source. At this meeting a council member moved to amend the resolution to reflect Fund 4402 and the council approved the amendment by voice vote. The council then voted to approve Resolution 2025-20 as amended.

Council members discussed the procedural need to first amend the record and then reapprove the resolution; no public comments were recorded during the hearing and no additional changes were made to the substance of the appropriation. The meeting transcript records the amendment and final approval by voice vote.
