The meeting began with nominations and a roll‑call procedure for committee leadership. Tammy Stephens was nominated and elected budget committee chair for the 12/02/2025–06/30/2026 term; the vice‑chair balloting initially placed Victoria Rizzo in a slate vote that failed, and the chair later stated Sandy Glantz would serve as vice chair.

The chair and staff confirmed the upcoming budget‑deliberation meetings (dates in April were noted) and asked staff to present a balanced proposed budget and specific line‑item worksheets so committee members can identify candidate reductions or re‑allocations during April deliberations. Committee members also requested an illustrative household cost summary to show combined levies/fees and county levies that affect an average property.

The session closed after staff answered final questions and a motion to adjourn passed by voice vote.
