Council approves $11,500 budget transfer for municipal election mailer

The City of Homewood Council on July 28 approved a budget amendment transferring $11,500 to cover a required mailer for the upcoming municipal election. The transfer moved $11,500 from account 01/4900 to 01/3600 (maintenance contracts) to fund the mailing, and the council recorded the action as Resolution 25 1 31.

City Clerk Mister Seegrest presented the item and told the council the expense was required for the election mailer; he noted the funds are available in the existing budget but that a transfer was needed to cover the specific line. Councilor Nelms made the motion to approve and Councilor Woolverton seconded it; the council voted 7-0.

No additional budget detail or vendor information was provided on the council floor. The finance committee had previously reviewed budget items in advance and council members indicated no further questions during the meeting.
