City Council holds public hearing on 2025–26 budget; receives no public comment
Summary
The City Council opened a public hearing on the city—s 2025—26 fiscal year budget but received no public testimony; the council adopted the meeting agenda with no resolutions and adjourned following unanimous roll-call aye votes.
The City Council held a public hearing on the city—s 2025—26 fiscal year budget but received no public comments, the presiding officer said at the meeting.
The hearing matters because municipal budgets set local spending priorities and the public hearing is the formal opportunity for residents to comment on the mayor—s proposed spending plan before the council proceeds with any budget actions.
At the start of the meeting the council voted to adopt the agenda "with no resolutions." The presiding officer said, "the council has been presented with, the mayor's budget, and, we are here to discuss it with the public." No members of the public rose to speak. The presiding officer then said, "Public hearing is closed."
Following the closed hearing, a motion to adjourn was made and the clerk called the roll. Recorded aye votes included Alderman Carpenter; Alderman QuistoMars; Alderman Holliday; Alderman Collins; and Alderman Maricela. No nay votes, abstentions, or recusals were recorded in the transcript.
The council did not take any public-record action on the budget during the hearing reported in the transcript. No further readings, votes on adoption, or specific budget amendments were recorded in the meeting excerpt provided. The meeting concluded with the presiding officer saying they were available for questions by phone.
