Staff presented the year-end budget amendment prepared for the city audit, explaining the measure reconciles actual expenditures and revenues with the budget. Staff said the city ended the year approximately $7–8 million above the original 2025 budget, driven in part by sales tax performance that outpaced inflation.

Board members asked clarifying questions about the magnitude and percentage growth; staff confirmed the increase equates to roughly 2.5–3% growth over the original 2025 baseline. Director Adcock asked that the board receive a separate copy of the amendment and for the item to be listed separately on future materials.
