Council adopts 2026-27 goals, sets budget ordinance for first reading
Summary
Council adopted its 2026-27 goals and objectives after a work-session presentation of a public-facing Gantt chart and internal tracker; council also placed the FY2026-27 budget ordinance on the floor for first reading and scheduled a public hearing and second reading for April 20, 2026.
Council formally adopted the city's 2026-27 goals and objectives after a work session where staff described a public-facing Gantt chart and an internal task tracker tied to quarterly reporting.
City Manager Robinson explained the strategic visioning process and said the goals come from council's prior work sessions; staff will maintain both public and internal tracking tools and can provide quarterly progress reports (SEG 248'SEG 346). Mark explained the public-facing chart and internal Gantt-based tracker, describing how each task will include assigned staff and target dates, and answered questions about update cadence (weekly/bi-weekly updates; quarterly reporting to council) (SEG 347'SEG 446).
Following the work session, council moved to adopt the goals and objectives for the two-year session (item 5817) and approved the motion (SEG 3150'SEG 3180). On budget timing, staff placed the FY 2026-27 Budget Appropriation Act (ordinance 26-005) on the floor for first reading and scheduled a public hearing, second reading and adoption for April 20, 2026 consistent with charter deadlines (SEG 2972'SEG 3021). Council also approved first readings and scheduling for pension/retirement ordinance amendments and a trust amendment for the postretirement healthcare trust fund (items 26-004, 5808).
