Fulton County commissioners adopted the county's proposed 2026 budget at a Dec. 30 meeting and approved a Tax Levy and Appropriation Resolution that maintains current tax rates. Commissioner Hervey P. Hann moved to approve Resolution 8 of 2025, described in the meeting as establishing the tax levy "with no increase in taxes for fiscal year 2026," and the motion carried with all in favor.
Fiscal Administrator Sue Reed and CFO Mike Lamb presented the budget; Reed told the board no changes had been made since the document was publicly advertised. Commissioners also approved the December 2025 pension report as presented by HR Administrator Mary Huston.
The board approved an agreement to retain Keller Engineers, Inc. for fiscal year 2026 and said the formal appointment of Keller Engineers would occur at the county reorganizational meeting on Jan. 6, 2026. The transcript does not specify the total dollar value of the 2026 budget or the salary set by the Salary Board for the newly hired per diem 911 dispatcher.
The meeting record shows routine motions and unanimous support across the items; no roll-call tallies were recorded in the transcript beyond the recurring statement "All in favor."
