The correct option is the second: The town council decreased funding for three departments: parks and recreation, construction, and staff development.

A colon may be used between independent clauses when the second sentence explains, illustrates, paraphrases, or expands on the first sentence. The colon is used to introduce a list of items. A colon is also useful before a quotation, and sometimes before direct speech.

In this case, after a colon a list with three items appears.

Take shorthand notes as you listen critically to part of President Barack Obama’s inaugural address.
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

On President Barack Obama's inaugural address, he exalts America ancestors, and forty-four presidents before him. Their strength in the face of adversity. Also reflects on the prosperity and calm that America has lived through these presidents, but it calls attention to the times of crisis in which sometimes the oath was made.

He speaks of wars, times of violence and hatred, and of a weakened nation. That it is necessary to make difficult choices to prepare the nation for a new era.

Also he remembers that generations have faced  wars, fascism, communism, but had won not only with missiles, but alliances, convictions, and values. Qualities like humility and moderation. Power alone can't change things, but is necessary prudent use; that security emanates from the justice, and strength of their example, as a nation.
