McCausland council adopts budget amendment, certifies FY2026-27 budget and tax levy
Summary
On April 14, 2026, the City of McCausland City Council unanimously approved Resolution 2026-06 adopting Proposed Budget Amendment #1 for FY2025-26 and Resolution 2026-07 adopting and certifying the FY2026-27 budget and city taxes. Both measures passed on roll call votes with four ayes and one member absent.
The City of McCausland City Council on April 14, 2026, adopted Resolution 2026-06 approving Proposed Budget Amendment No. 1 for fiscal year 2025–2026 and passed Resolution 2026-07 adopting and certifying the fiscal year 2026–2027 budget and city taxes. Both measures were approved on roll call votes of four ayes; Councilmember Stewart was recorded absent.
The actions came during the council meeting convened by Mayor William Gillispie at 6:35 p.m. after two earlier public hearings (for the amendment and the proposed 2026–27 budget) that produced no public comment. The council approved the consent agenda earlier in the meeting, which included approval of the agenda, minutes from March 31, 2026, the claims report and the treasurer’s report.
Councilmember Shipman moved to read and consider Resolution 2026-06 (Approving the Adoption of Proposed Budget Amendment #1 for FY 2025-2026); Claussen seconded. The minutes record a roll call vote of Ayes: Mizaur, Tague, Claussen and Shipman, and the resolution was adopted. Councilmember Claussen then moved to read and consider Resolution 2026-07 (Approving the Adoption and Certification of Budget and City Taxes for Fiscal Year 2026-2027); Mizaur seconded and the resolution passed on the same roll call vote.
The meeting minutes do not specify the dollar amounts or line-item changes in the adopted amendment, nor do they list the specific levy rate or tax-dollar totals certified for FY2026–27. Those details are recorded in the formal budget documents and certificates of assessment filed with the city clerk. The minutes also do not record any public testimony or debate on either measure.
Mayor William Gillispie presided over the hearing and council session. Present for the votes were Councilmembers Mizaur, Tague, Claussen and Shipman; Stewart was absent. The minutes are signed by Mayor William Gillispie and City Clerk Haylee Soda.
The council adjourned after the business was completed. The adopted resolutions and the certified budget should be available in the city clerk’s office as part of the official record.
