Summary
Council voted to advertise the proposed 2026 budget as amended. The budget includes a placeholder for a half-year School Resource Officer, a proposed $1 per capita library capital contribution for three years, reduced downtown planning allocation with $20,000 retained for comp-plan implementation, and traffic-calming measures estimated at roughly $35,000 for initial work.
Lititz Borough Council voted Nov. 25 to advertise the proposed 2026 budget with several adjustments and placeholders for further consideration.
Finance presented preliminary 2026 figures showing estimated expenses of about $9.56 million and an expected fund-balance percentage in the high 20s (the finance lead described maintaining a fund-balance target around 25 percent). Council approved advertising the budget as amended, with final approval scheduled for the December meeting.
