The City Council approved an amendment to Ordinance 202509 to correct a typographical error in the posted tax rate, the clerk said. The clerk read the revised figure as a posted tax rate of "0.567900 instead of 0.567902," and said the correction would result in an approximate $5 reduction in ad valorem collections for the coming fiscal year.
Council members voted to carry the motion after a roll call; the transcript records the roll-call names and affirmative responses and the clerk declared the motion carried. The correction was described throughout as a technical fix to the ordinance's posted rate rather than a change in policy or tax-setting intent.
