Commission adopts two budget ordinances adjusting fund balances for FY2025–26 and adopting FY2026–27 budget
Summary
The commission gave second summary readings and adopted ordinance 2026-011 (amending FY2025–26) and ordinance 2026-012 (adopting FY2026–27), with recorded fund-balance changes; roll-call votes were recorded in the meeting minutes.
Megan presented second summary readings for two budget ordinances. Ordinance 2026-011 amends the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025 and ending June 30, 2026 budget by changing several fund balances (examples given in the packet: general fund from -18,865 to -152,524; utility fund from -2,208,470 to -2,438,210; cemetery fund from 21,957 to -16,993; perpetual care from -202,000 to -127,050).
The commission moved and seconded the ordinance for roll-call vote; several commissioners explained votes and concerns during roll call (one commissioner noted the budget does not include adding a firefighter and that fiscal court discussions affected timing). Roll-call votes recorded in the transcript show multiple yes votes and at least one no vote on the amendment.
Megan then presented ordinance 2026-012 adopting the annual budget for fiscal year 2026–27 and read changes in fund balances (examples: general fund projected at 107,158; stormwater -444,770; utility fund -1,752,549; sanitation 1,798; municipal fund -6,968; perpetual care positive 23,000). The commission moved, seconded, and adopted ordinance 2026-012 on roll call; recorded votes included several yes votes and at least one no vote in the transcript.
The ordinances become effective upon passage and publication and full copies are available on request from the city clerk. The commission did not record further amendments at this meeting.
