# Sugar Creek Township Board re-votes a $67,000 Rainy Day Fund property purchase after a posting error voided the first vote

## What happened
At a special session, board member Mike Anderson told the board that a $67,000
transfer from the township's Rainy Day Fund (money townships set aside outside
the regular budget for unplanned costs) — approved once already, to buy a
property — had to be re-done, because the state's Department of Local
Government Finance (DLGF, the state agency that oversees local government
budgets and required public notices) had not had the item posted on its
website for the required 14 days before that first vote. [t=25] The board
replaced the invalid version, Resolution 1-2026, with an identical Resolution
2-2026 covering the same $67,000 Rainy Day Fund transfer, now that the 14-day
posting had been completed. [t=25] The transcript does not identify whose
property is being purchased or where it is. [t=25]

## The outcome
The board passed Resolution 2-2026 on a voice vote — a motion, a second, and a
call of "all in favor... all opposed" with no dissent recorded; no per-member
tally was taken. [t=67] Mike Anderson confirmed the resolution had passed.
