The Blacksburg Town Council held its regular meeting on April 26, 2022, at 6:30 p.m. in the Roger E. Hedgepeth Chambers of the Municipal Building. The meeting focused primarily on the adoption of the FY2022/2023 budget (Ordinance 1984) and amendments to water, sewer, meter, and solid waste fees (Ordinance 1985). Two council members had previously read disqualification statements regarding Ordinance 1984 at the April 12 public hearing and did not vote on certain sections. All actions passed unanimously, with some abstentions.

We have no public hearings this evening. We have time for citizen comments for anybody who would like to come forward. Seeing no one, we will move on to our unfinished business, some of the most important business of the year, and that is uh our town budget. Um we will begin with ordinances 1984 and 1985. At our meeting on April 12th, two council members read disqualification statements regarding ordinance nineteen eighty-four. And these members will not be voting on parts of that ordinance. So now we'll take up ordinance nineteen eighty-four. I move approval of amended ordinance nineteen eighty-four with the exception of items section four A I and Section 4A V and Sections six and seven. Those items will be voted on separately. Second. We have a motion and a second. Will the clerk call the roll? Ford. Aye. Aye. Addingly? Aye. Aye. Anderson. Aye.
