Committee sends FY2026 budget ordinance to council for first reading
Summary
The committee moved the fiscal year 2026 budget ordinance to the full council for a first reading on March 17 and a second reading on April 7. The mayor described the budget as balanced and thanked department heads and finance staff.
The Committee of the Whole voted March 10 to send the fiscal year 2026 budget ordinance to the city council for a first reading on March 17 and a second reading on April 7.
The mayor said he worked with Finance Director Turnipseed to present a balanced budget and thanked department heads and staff for their work. "I have worked with Finance Director Turnipseed, and we have brought in a balanced budget," the mayor said. He asked committee members to offer any comments before the ordinance moves to first reading; none were raised and the committee approved sending the ordinance forward.
The committee’s action advances the city's budget process to the formal council readings; additional details and departmental line items will be part of the council packet and the public record during the scheduled readings.
