The gas-rate suspension keeps the proposed rates from taking effect under the filing described in the ordinance. The council also changed the adopted budget for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, though the minutes do not provide the amendment amount or details. Other approved actions included economic development and grant agreements, election-worker appointments for the May 2, 2026 general election, and a request for staff to present two or three options for electing the mayor pro-tem at the April 28 meeting.
