Bryce Canyon City approves amended FY2025–26 budget, adopts proposed FY2026–27 budget

At a public hearing on June 9, Bryce Canyon City officials approved an amended fiscal year 2025–26 budget that rolls over capital B&C road funds, RAP tax funds and parks and recreation funding, and adopted the proposed fiscal year 2026–27 budget.

Sydney Lamas, a city staff member, presented both budgets to the council. Lamas reviewed the amended FY2025–26 plan and said it would carry over the capital B&C road funds, RAP tax funds and parks and recreation allocations into the next fiscal period. The council opened each matter for public comment; the transcript records that no members of the public were present to speak.

The council approved the amended FY2025–26 budget “as presented,” according to the meeting record. Lamas then presented the proposed FY2026–27 budget (listed in the transcript as the 6/30/27 budget). After opening the hearing for public comment on that proposal and receiving none, the council approved the proposed FY2026–27 budget as presented; the transcript does not record a roll-call vote or individual tallies for those two approvals.

A separate motion to adjourn the public hearing was moved by Mike Stevens and seconded by Kameron Roundy. The transcript records votes on that motion as Gary Syrett yes, Cherrie Tebbs yes, and Bryce absent; the motion carried and the public hearing was adjourned. The record does not supply a complete roll-call tally for the approvals of the two budgets.

No authorities, statutes, or specific ordinance numbers were cited during the hearing. The transcript records no public testimony on either budget. The council’s approvals conclude the publicly recorded steps in the hearing; the budgets will proceed per the city’s internal procedures for final adoption and implementation.
