Summary

NCD staff reported FY 2026 appropriations planning at $3,850,000, a Scribe budget of $1.3M, year-to-date spending of roughly $600,000 and $150,000 in savings; the council moved and approved the financial report by voice vote.

The National Council on Disability received its quarterly financial update and approved the report by voice vote.

Keith (financial lead) summarized the figures: a planning figure for FY 2026 of $3,850,000, a Scribe budget pegged at $1,300,000, year-to-date spending of approximately $600,000 (about 45%), and an identified $150,000 in uncommitted savings attributed to delays related to the recent government shutdown and reduced annualized contract costs. "We get an unqualified opinion," Keith said, reporting that the biannual audit was concluding with a clean opinion.

Following the presentation, Sasha moved to approve the financial report, Hoskie seconded, and the chair called for the ayes; the motion carried by voice vote with no recorded opposition.

Council members asked clarifying questions about the continuing resolution and the budget horizon; staff said appropriations language for the council's program area was appearing in House and Senate drafts and that staff would provide quarterly updates on savings and commitments.
