Notes for the Work Session - 12-13-24

______________________________________________________________________________ CITY OF TIFFIN CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL – NOTES FOR WORK SESSION ITEMS December 13, 2024 • I would like to review the current FY 2024-2025 budget and then also discuss some general goals and priorities for the FY 2025-2026 budget. As I mentioned in my Administrator’s report, attached is a budget calendar. If we need to add or subtract dates from the calendar, we can work around that. There have been some slight changes to the notice requirements from the State this year but that should work into our current schedule just fine. • Below is some draft language for the proposed amendment to Chapter 69.09 of the Tiffin Code that addresses Truck Parking Limited.
