3. Resolution 17-69: Appropriation - Operating Budget Stabilization Fund (Motion to Move Resolution 17-69 - majority vote (5))

estimate of new growth last Jan/Feb has changed and hence the number is higher now than it was then. Can raise the amount now (before the tax rate is set)  - recommending to put the money aside now for use later (i.e. fiscal 2019 budget challenge)

clarification on stabilization accounts
general stab is about 5M
there is a fire truck, turf field, building, and the budget stabilization account to which this would be added

motion to approve, seconded, passed 9-0
