Mendocino LAFCO adopts an unchanged $338,000 budget for fiscal year 2026–27
Summary
The Mendocino Local Agency Formation Commission approved a final FY 2026–27 budget of $338,000, using $53,000 of unreserved equity and keeping apportionments at $275,000; commissioners authorized staff to transmit the adopted budget to member agencies and the county auditor‑controller.
The Mendocino Local Agency Formation Commission on May 4 adopted a $338,000 final budget for fiscal year 2026–27, largely unchanged from the prior year.
Executive Officer Hinman summarized the plan, saying the budget uses $53,000 in unreserved equity and sets apportionments at $275,000 for the fourth consecutive year. Hinman said the budget maintains basic services and a work plan that prioritizes municipal service reviews and sphere‑of‑influence studies.
The budget groups expenditures into basic services, the work plan (including municipal service reviews and sphere updates), and services and supplies such as office operations, trainings and contract services. Hinman told commissioners the remaining cash balance will support work‑plan items that roll over into the next fiscal year.
Commissioners asked a few clarifying questions during the presentation; no public comment was received on the item. The commission moved to adopt the recommended resolution approving the final budget and work program and directed the executive officer to transmit the adopted budget to member agencies and the county auditor‑controller, as required by state law.
The motion passed on a roll‑call vote with all commissioners present voting in favor.
