Said the city needs a treasurer but cannot currently afford one.

Meadows and Jones agreed that hiring a treasurer is a good idea, but neither felt the city could afford it at this time. “If you want to hire a treasurer, you are going to have to cut the fire department,” Meadows said. Jones agreed with Meadows that the budget should not include a treasurer but left open the possibility of reopening the budget to add the position. “I think we do need a treasurer, I don’t think we can afford a treasurer,” she said.
