North Las Vegas council adopts $127.3 million augmentation to 2024–25 budget
Summary
The City Council approved Resolution 2741 to augment the fiscal year 2024–25 budget by about $127.3 million, primarily to record grant awards and capital project rollovers, city budget staff said.
The North Las Vegas City Council on June 18 adopted Resolution 2741, approving a $127.3 million augmentation to the city’s fiscal year 2024–25 budget to record grant awards and capital project rollovers.
Justin O’Brien, the city’s budget manager, told the council that the total augmentation is about $127,300,000, with roughly $68.3 million added to governmental funds and $58.9 million to proprietary funds. He said roughly 79% of the proposed adjustments are related to grants and capital project rollovers.
The measure matters because Nevada law requires municipalities to record midyear increases to an adopted budget and to publish the changes; O’Brien said the augmentation is a routine, year-end compliance action under Nevada Revised Statutes. “Budget augmentation is something that we present to council every year as required by NRS,” O’Brien said during the presentation.
Councilmembers did not receive substantive public comment on the item; the council opened and closed the public hearing and then approved the resolution. A council member praised O’Brien and his team for their work on the budget and noted the city had received Department of Taxation acceptance for the FY2026 budget submission.
Details provided during the presentation included that the largest drivers of the augmentation were grant awards and capital project rollovers. O’Brien said the city’s history of augmentations showed about $127 million in total augmentations, and he identified about $52 million previously tied to grants and grant rollovers in their historical presentation. The adoption completes a final compliance step for fiscal year 2025, staff said.
The council formally moved to approve and adopt Resolution 2741; the motion passed. The council did not provide a recorded roll-call vote in the audible record.
Looking ahead, staff noted the underlying line-item detail and the statutorily required public notices are available through posted state forms and city records for anyone seeking the specific departmental breakdowns or individual grant amounts.
