Castle Dale Council finalizes fiscal year 2027 budget, removes Ghost Road Path funding
Summary
Castle Dale City Council finalized the tentative fiscal year 2027 budget on May 14, removing funding for two doors and the Ghost Road Path while adding training expenses; the motion passed unanimously.
The Castle Dale City Council voted May 14 to finalize the tentative fiscal year 2027 budget after a brief public hearing that drew no public comments. Treasurer Rebecca Norton presented the proposal and the council approved a motion to adopt the tentative budget, with modifications that removed funding for two doors and for the Ghost Road Path project and added training expenses.
The action came after Councilmember Joel Dorsch moved to finalize the budget and Councilmember Bradley Giles seconded; Councilmembers Glen Gerber, Michael Jorgensen, Giles, Emily Mills and Dorsch voted yes. Norton told the council more detailed line-item numbers are available on the budget worksheet.
Why it matters: The budget sets the city's spending priorities for the coming fiscal year, and the council's decision to withdraw Ghost Road Path funding and omit two doors reduces planned capital outlays. Added training funding signals a prioritization of staff development.
Council members gave no public comment during the hearing and did not schedule further revisions. The council recorded the budget action as a formal motion with a unanimous vote.
Next steps: The council approved the tentative FY2027 budget and directed staff to proceed with implementation and record-keeping; more detailed financial reporting was expected after Treasurer Norton gains access to the PTIF account.
