Summary

Town staff proposed budget work session dates for 2025 (March 17 and tentatively March 31) with introduction and adoption of the budget slated for the regular April 7 meeting; council members raised scheduling conflicts and agreed to place the dates on the calendar and confirm availability.

Town staff told the council the 2025 budget process will begin with a budget work session scheduled for March 17 and a tentative second work session on March 31, with the budget introduced and scheduled for adoption on April 7, 2025.

The staff presentation noted that in 2024 the council scheduled two work sessions but canceled the second; the recommendation this year is to hold the primary session on March 17 (aligned with the regular work session date) and keep March 31 as a tentative backup. "The introduction for the next year's budget will be 04/07/2025 at our regular monthly council meeting, and an adoption will be made there for 2025 at our meeting" (speaker 3).

Council members raised schedule conflicts related to spring break and individual commitments and discussed adjusting meeting times (5:30 p.m. vs. 7:00 p.m.). The group agreed to place the sessions on the calendar and asked staff to accommodate members' availability where possible; the council did not change the proposed introduction and adoption dates.

Staff will circulate the calendar invitations and confirm which sessions will be needed as the budget season approaches.
