Kittitas County auditor requests June 2 public hearing to amend 2026 budget

Kittitas County Board of Commissioners · May 19, 2026

Summary

Auditor Zach Beheaven asked the board to set a June 2 public hearing to adopt previously reviewed amendments to the county's 2026 budget; he said the amendments are unchanged from the last study session. No formal vote or tally is recorded in the transcript.

Auditor Zach Beheaven asked the Kittitas County Board of Commissioners to set a public hearing for June 2 to consider amendments to the county's 2026 budget. Beheaven told the board the amendments had been reviewed at the last study session and "nothing has changed."

The request was presented as part of the consent agenda and did not generate questions from commissioners in the transcript. The item was described as a scheduling action rather than a final appropriation; no motion, second, or formal vote appears in the meeting record provided.

Why it matters: a public hearing launches the formal opportunity for public comment and can precede final budget action by the board. The auditor's description indicates the board reviewed the proposed changes previously and is moving the amendment process to a public hearing date.

Next steps: the board's office will advertise the June 2 public hearing and include the proposed amendments for public review ahead of that meeting. The transcript does not record a formal approval of the amendment itself.
