GOLF CART REGISTRATION RENEWAL

It’s a new year, so it’s time to renew your annual golf cart registration! Please email Deputy Clerk Addie Tych with questions or to submit your renewal form and $30 fee. Checks can be made out to the Town of Beaux Arts Village. See https://www.beauxarts-wa.gov/other-town-services for forms and more information.

COUNCIL BUSINESS

The Council met on Thursday December 15, 2022 and discussed the following:

Amendments to the 2022 Budget: The Council passed Ordinance No. 460 amending the 2022 budget to account for the cost of expanding the maintenance shed. These costs were not fully known when the 2022 budget was originally adopted in December 2021. Approx. 60% of these costs were paid for with granting funding from the State. The remaining 40% came from the Town’s capital reserves.
Final 2023 Budget: The Council passed Ordinance No. 461 adopting a final 2023 budget.
Shared Tree Policy: Mayor Howes outlined a new process for assessing and handling trees sitting on the boundary between public and private property, which will be followed when either the Town or a resident has concerns about such trees.
