Lynn City panel approves FY2027 operating budget, CIP and rates
Summary
The Lynn City Water & Sewer Commission on June 1 approved three separate measures: the FY2027 operating budget, the FY2027–29 capital improvement plan (including funding for the CSO 005 sewer separation project), and the FY2027 rates and fee schedule. Each motion passed by roll-call votes of the commissioners present.
The Lynn City Water & Sewer Commission voted on June 1 to approve its proposed FY2027 operating budget, the FY2027–29 capital improvement plan (CIP), and the FY2027 rates and fee schedule.
Brian, presenting the budget materials, told the commission the drafts in the June packet contained no changes from the previous month. “From the drafts that were given to you in your last month’s packages, there have been no changes made. So, no changes to the budget, no changes to CIP, no changes to the rates and fee structure,” he said.
For the CIP, the commission specifically noted funding for the CSO 005 sewer separation project. The transcript’s dollar amounts for the CIP appropriation are unclear as spoken in the meeting record and therefore are not specified in this report; the commission’s motion and the roll-call approvals appear on the record as described below.
Each of the three items was moved and seconded separately. The meeting recorded roll-call votes with Commissioners Lozeau, O’Shea and Salona voting yes for each motion as the commissioners present; absent members were recorded as absent for the roll calls. The motions passed as recorded.
What happens next: the approved budget, CIP and rate schedule will be incorporated into the commission’s administrative and fiscal planning for FY2027. Any specific project-level authorizations or contract awards tied to the CIP (including the CSO 005 project) will be managed through subsequent procurement and contract approvals.
