BACKGROUND:
Staff will present a preview of the work done at the direction of council to this point on the FY2024-FY2025 budget and will solicit discussion modifications that may be recommended, as well as other discussion of current and future needs of the City that may impact the budget. Council will discuss, review, and update the draft FY2024 Budget and provide direction to Staff in preparation for a Public Hearing on May 13.
Council will also receive a report on using the special projects fund or other funding for museums as directed by Council at a Special Call Meeting April 8, 2024.
Additionally, we will discuss the possibility of General Obligation and/or sales tax elections in Muskogee.
At the City Council Special Call meeting of April 25, 2023, the City Council provided direction to Staff to pursue the option of General Obligation Bonds for future funding of capital needs for the City of Muskogee. City Staff and representatives from The Public Finance Law Group PLLC, presented funding and scheduling options for a potential General Obligation Bond program in Muskogee for the Fall of 2023, at a Special Call Council meeting on May 22, 2023. Later in 2023, Council gave further direction to Staff to prepare for an election in 2024. On April 8, 2024, during a Special Call Council meeting, the Council gave direction to Staff to conduct a public opinion survey on potential categories for the General Obligation Bond and/or Capital Improvement Projects. This item will allow discussion and will allow council to prioritize and select projects for inclusion as the City prepares for potential elections on the subject.
