Brookshire Council Adopts FY 2026 Budget and Ratifies Property Tax Actions
Summary
During its Sept. 18 meeting the Brookshire City Council opened and closed hearings on the fiscal 2026 budget and property tax rate, then approved ordinances adopting the FY2026 general budget and ratifying the tax rate in accordance with the cited code sections.
The City Council of Brookshire opened a public hearing on the proposed general budget for the fiscal year ending 2026 during its Sept. 18 meeting and, after no public comment was offered, closed the hearing and adopted the budget by ordinance.
Council members then opened a public hearing on the proposed property tax rate for fiscal year 2026, received no comments, closed the hearing and ratified the proposed tax rate. The council subsequently approved an ordinance adopting the city's property tax rate for the fiscal year ending 2026.
The council cited the Local Government Code provision referenced in the meeting as "section 102.007 of the local government code" in connection with adopting the budget and with the tax-rate actions. The meeting record shows roll-call voting occurred and the mayor and council recorded the actions as "motion passed."
The transcript does not state the exact tax rate or present a line-item budget summary during the public hearing portion; the tax rate and budget ordinance numbers were read into the record as ordinance numbers but the transcript does not include the numeric rate or the budget totals in the council's spoken remarks. The ordinance numbers read during the meeting include ordinance number 25 7 38 16 for the general budget and ordinance number 25 7 39 16 for the property tax rate (as spoken at the meeting).
No motions to amend the budget or tax-rate ordinances were recorded on the meeting transcript. The decisions were presented and approved during the same meeting; any future changes would require a separate council action.
