BENDER: Vice Mayor Larrabee?
LARRABEE: Aye.
BENDER: And Chairman Friedel?
MAYOR FRIEDEL: Aye.
BENDER: Six-zero.
MAYOR FRIEDEL: Thank you. And I see Paul's back up again. So we're going to have
Consideration and Possible Action on the tentative budget.
Go ahead, Paul.
SOLDINGER: Great. Again, thank you, Chairman and Board. So this second meeting for
Eagle Mountain Community Facilities District is also considering the tentative fiscal year
2026 budget for this special taxing district. We have discussed this in prior council
meetings. We've actually expended most of the monies in this fund, and we made the
last debt payment back in 2021.
So with an existing special taxing district, you are required to adopt a budget, so that's
why we're here today. We're adopting a budget for$200 just to meet the public notice
requirements to send out public notice and publish in the newspaper. No tax levy will
be levied upon the Eagle Mountain residents. And the only other things to consider is
we will likely recommend closure of this facilities district beginning next year based on
bond counsel and special taxing district counsel advice.
So with that, I'm here for any questions that you have.
MAYOR FRIEDEL: Seeing no questions, I would need to have a motion to approve this
resolution and a second.
LARRABEE: Move to approve.
WATTS: Second.
MAYOR FRIEDEL: Any comment cards,Town Clerk?
BENDER: No, Chairman.
