Council adopts 2025–26 budget workshop schedule, starting March
Summary
City Council voted to adopt a proposed 2025–26 budget workshop schedule, setting Monday evening sessions beginning in March (approximate 5:00 p.m. start) to prepare for public hearings on the budget in late May or June.
The City Council voted to adopt a 2025–26 budget workshop schedule, setting Monday workshop sessions beginning in March and starting at 5:00 p.m. to accommodate member availability.
Mr. Bolman presented the proposed schedule and said the calendar is intended to allow staff and council time to match specific funds to workshop dates, noting that some items may take multiple sessions. "These are an example ... we may not have one every single time," he said, urging members to review dates and availability. The schedule is intended to lead to public hearings on budget adoption in late May or June.
Council members clarified the likely start time for workshops to be 5:00 p.m. so members who cannot arrive earlier can participate. The motion to adopt the workshop schedule as presented passed without recorded opposition. The council instructed staff to post notices for each public meeting and to return with any calendar changes as needed.
The workshops will be the venue for detailed budget review; council members said they expect to pair larger or more complex topics across multiple sessions. No further fiscal decisions were made at this meeting pending the workshop series and subsequent public hearings.
