What this means

The tax-credit applications would support programs serving job trainees, low-income residents, seniors, people with disabilities, children, and community organizations; the resolution authorizes the applications but does not itself award the credits. The council selected Clifton Larson Allen, LLP to audit the Board of Education’s accounts. It also adopted a change removing the four-year limit on a tax assessor’s term, while a proposal to change the limit to six years failed.
