BRENHAM CITY COUNCIL TO HEAR QUARTERLY FINANCES, TUESDAY

  

A review and discussion of the second quarter financial report tops the agenda for Thursday’s meeting of the Brenham City Council.

Chief Financial Officer Carolyn Miller reports that for the second quarter, the city experienced favorable net revenues over expenditures in the General Funds as well as all five utility funds.

Miller also reports that with the recent economic troubles that have hit Brenham, the city is expected to closely monitor the fund performance and reduce expenditures to mitigate any negative impact.

Also on Tuesday’s agenda, the council is expected to approve a 10-year extension with Southern Flyer Inc., for Jack and Janet Hess to continue as the Fixed Base Operator for the Brenham Airport.

The Hess’ have been serving in that capacity since their first five-year contract in 2000.

The council is also expected to discuss a gas and diesel contract for the city’s vehicles; a one-year extension for bulk water and wastewater treatment chemicals; and, discuss minor modifications for the parklet project for the new restaurant on Baylor Street in downtown Brenham.

The City Council is also expected to go into executive session to discuss the possible sale of 15 city-owned lots totaling nearly five acres.
