Central Virginia Transportation Authority opens public hearing on FY2027 operating budget
Summary
At its April 24 meeting the Central Virginia Transportation Authority opened a publicly advertised hearing on the proposed FY2027 administrative and operating budget. Staff said one written comment was submitted and distributed; no in-person speakers addressed the board during the hearing.
The Central Virginia Transportation Authority opened a public hearing on its proposed fiscal year 2027 administrative and operating budget at its April 24, 2026 meeting. Chair Nelson introduced the item and asked Executive Director Parsons to summarize the hearing procedures.
Parsons said the budget had been advertised in a 15-day public notice and that staff received one written comment, which had been circulated to members before the meeting. "We do have an advertised 15-day window and public hearing scheduled for today," Parsons said, and he invited any members of the public present or online to speak to the budget.
No member of the public spoke during the open comment period. Staff and members clarified that the submitted written comment did not appear to be pertinent to the budget itself. The board did not take formal action on the budget during the open session recorded in the transcript; members moved next to other business, and discussion continued about whether a closed session was needed to address a separate contractual matter.
The authority also approved the minutes from its March 27 meeting earlier in the session. The hearing is part of the authority's standard budget process and does not indicate final adoption; any vote on the FY2027 administrative and operating budget was not recorded in the provided transcript.
