Board approves FY26 budget amendment after clarifying school-facilities tax funding
Summary
The board approved Ordinance 26-01 to amend the FY26 budget after clarifying that certain sidewalk and right-of-way expenditures will come from the Williamson County school adequate facilities tax fund rather than general-fund reserves; two earlier funding-source amendments were removed before final adoption.
The Town of Nolensville Board of Commissioners approved Ordinance 26-01 amending the fiscal year 2026 budget after a series of funding-source clarifications and amendments.
Town staff told the board the town’s school adequate facilities tax fund held “roughly a little over $1,000,000” and recommended using that fund for several sidewalk projects rather than tapping general-fund reserves. Commissioners moved to amend the ordinance to shift the Catalina sidewalk-connection appropriation and a Rocky Fork right-of-way appropriation to the school adequate facilities tax. The board also discussed a Sam Donald sidewalk connection tied to an in-lieu-of-sidewalk payment and a required amendment to the Bent Creek PUD before spending could proceed on that location.
After a short break staff clarified that the correct revenue source for the identified items is the Williamson County 30% school adequate facilities tax. Because of that clarification, the board voted to remove the two earlier amendments changing revenue sources and then approved the budget amendment ordinance as originally presented; the motion passed unanimously.
The board also approved two construction contract awards related to curb, gutter, storm-drain repair and sidewalk construction: one item was postponed pending PUD and funding sequencing, and another (Catalina to Kings Barn) was approved.
