Corinne council approves 2026 adjustments, adopts 2026–27 budget resolution unanimously
Summary
The Corinne City Council voted unanimously to approve routine adjustments to its 2026 budget and adopted Resolution 26-02 to set the 2026–27 fiscal year budget as amended; council also discussed a potential fall dump day and carryover funds for a fire truck.
The Corinne City Council voted unanimously to approve a set of 2026 budget adjustments and adopted Resolution 26-02 to establish the city's 2026'27 budget as amended.
Council Chair opened the public hearings for the 2026 adjustments and for the 2027 (fiscal year) budget and, after confirming there were no public sign-ins or written comments, the council moved forward with approval. Joshua Morris moved to approve the 2026 adjustments and Tasha Jones seconded; the motion carried unanimously. Later, Tom Little moved to adopt Resolution 26-02 covering July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027 as amended, with Krista (Hardiman/Harden in the transcript) seconding; the council again voted unanimously to adopt the resolution.
Why it matters: the 2026 adjustments are routine internal reallocations that balance the closing fiscal year; the 2026'27 resolution locks in appropriations and spending authority for the coming year. During the discussion members noted a previously budgeted $50,000 capital line for a fire truck that the city expects to receive at no cost from Box Elder County; council agreed to retain a portion of that carryover to cover outfitting and incidental costs.
What the council said: the chair described the adjustments as a standard practice to bring the year to zero and to "move monies around to balance it at the end." Joshua Morris and other members said they did not see items of concern and supported approval. On the fire truck carryover, the chair recommended leaving some money in the capital budget to pay for hose-size adjustments and other fittings.
Other fiscal items: councilors discussed whether to budget now for a possible fall community "dump day" (a bulk-waste collection program). Members agreed it is difficult to estimate costs because tonnage and participation vary; the council agreed to delay any large appropriation and to amend the budget in June if they decide to move forward. Staff and council discussed contacting Box Elder County and local vendors to seek a quoted rate for multiple dumpsters or a discounted arrangement.
Next steps: the adopted Resolution 26-02 takes effect as the city's fiscal-year budget; council instructed staff to track outstanding items (equipment outfitting, potential dump-day costs) and to return with any recommended amendments if needed.
