NEW BUSINESS

 

 

1. Resolution Approving City of Weirton’s 2006-07 Fiscal Year General Fund and Coal Severance Budget

It was moved by Councilman Moore to accept this Resolution and second by Councilman Dalrymple.

 

Councilman Kondik asked if it was correct that the $25,000 was the anticipated carryover.

 

Ms. Means, the Financial Director, said that it would not be carryover.  This was the amount that was left.

 

Councilman Moore commented that it was the estimated Ad Valorem tax.

 

Ms. Means explained that Councilman Kondik may be thinking about the Unencumbered Fund Balance which is on the Revenue page, the top item - $1,230,000; this is the estimated carryover.  She explained further that when they go the final Ad Valorem numbers and they were put into the budget, there was a surplus.  The Ad Valorem came in higher than they anticipated, so that is where the $253,000 was.  At the last workshop, Council decided to put it all into Contingencies for right now.

 

The motion has been made and second so the Mayor asked for the vote.

 

Councilman Moore asked for a Roll Call vote, because he thought that the Budget required it.  Mayor Miller and Ms. Means didn’t think that it required it.  But, Ms. Means, in order to be sure, even thought it does not have to be listed on the resolution, then they should do the roll call.
