Raleigh council adopts FY27 operating and capital improvement budgets by voice vote
Summary
The council adopted the FY27 operating and five-year CIP budgets, municipal service district ordinances and the Greater Raleigh Convention and Visitors Bureau budget effective July 1, 2026; the motion was made and carried by voice vote at the work session with no roll-call tally read in the transcript.
Nick Sadler of Budget and Management Services told the council that the FY27 operating budget adopts the city manager’s proposed operating budget with council changes and that the CIP ordinance approves both the FY27 CIP budget and the five-year CIP plan, effective July 1, 2026.
After Sadler summarized the packet (including municipal service district ordinances for Hillsborough Street and Downtown MSDs and the Greater Raleigh Convention and Visitors Bureau budget), a council member moved to adopt the FY27 proposed operating and capital improvement budgets and associated ordinances and resolutions. The motion was seconded and the chair conducted a voice vote. The chair recorded an affirmative response and declared the motion carried and the budgets adopted; the transcript does not include a roll-call tally.
Nick Sadler summarized next steps and the statutory timeline for adoption; council members noted the city must adopt the budget by June 30 and directed continued Monday meetings for budget work through the adoption deadline. The meeting ended after the adoption and adjournment was called.
