FOURTH ORDER OF BUSINESS	Consideration	of	Resolution	2024-01
Approving the Proposed Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Budget (Suggested Date: July 17, 2024) and Setting a Public Hearing on the Adoption of the Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Budget
Ms. Burns stated mailed notice was sent last year at $1,344.09. There are two versions of the budget included for review and both are under that amount for the current year so no assessment hearing is needed as they don’t intend to go beyond the previously noticed amount. Option A’s total is $1,306.51. The two budgets are the same with the exception one has funds for security included at $34,000 and a little bit higher contingencies and the other one does not. The smaller one with no security and smaller contingencies Option B is $1,218.40. She suggested going with the one with the higher amount but can always go with the lower budget then they get to final adoption. This one has 386 lots. It is still largely under construction with not a lot of residents there. The $1,218.40 option does not have a reserve, no security and has small contingencies.

On MOTION by Mr. Arnette, seconded by Mr. Cavaretta, with all in favor, Resolution 2024-01 Approving the Proposed Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Budget and Setting a Public Hearing for July 17, 2024 on Adoption of the Fiscal Year 2024/2025 Budget – Option A, was approved.
