Centerville council adopts FY26 budget, holds property tax and utility rates steady
Summary
The Centerville Town Council voted to adopt the fiscal year 2026 budget, keeping the property tax rate at $0.535 per $1 of assessed value and the public utility tax at $13 per $100 of assessed value; capital and grant-funded project totals were announced.
The Centerville Town Council voted unanimously June 5 to adopt the fiscal year 2026 budget, preserving the town's current property tax rate at 53.5 cents and the public utility tax at $13 per $100 of assessed value.
Finance officer Karen (last name not specified in the transcript) presented the ordinance (O 7 20 25) and described the budget's major figures: general-fund capital of $342,000; enterprise-fund capital of $115,000; and grant-funded projects totaling $4,000,625.25. Karen said an adjustment was made to the salary line for promotions, and noted a transfer to fund balance of $87,006 for the general fund and $150,950 for the enterprise fund.
The budget was moved for approval and the council conducted a roll-call vote; all named members voting in the roll call were recorded as "Yes." The council thanked staff and department heads for the budget process and the finance officer for organizing the materials.
The ordinance was read on June 5 and approved that evening. Council members indicated the budget process felt organized and professional and that department heads and staff had been cooperative during preparation.
The council did not provide line-item detail beyond what Karen noted in the meeting; additional budget documents and the ordinance are part of the municipal record for anyone seeking further detail.
