Cannon Beach council adopts 2026–27 budget that includes $790,000 settlement appropriation
Summary
The City Council adopted Resolution 26‑12 (version B) on June 9, approving the FY 2026–27 budget and an appropriation to fund a $790,000 settlement; the council also approved Resolution 26‑11 to accept state revenue sharing estimated at $238,155.
Cannon Beach — The City Council on June 9 adopted the fiscal year 2026–27 budget (Resolution 26‑12, version B), approving an appropriation to cover a proposed $790,000 legal settlement and formally electing to receive state revenue‑sharing funds for the coming year.
City staff told the council the city expects roughly $238,155 in state revenue sharing for FY 2026–27, consisting of about $116,000 to the general fund and $122,155 to the road fund. During the public hearing on the allocation of those state funds, no members of the public spoke on that specific item before the hearing closed.
The budget presentation described three statutory options for council under budget law — reducing taxes, reducing expenditures with corresponding resource adjustments, or increasing expenditures within specified thresholds — and explained that the settlement payment required the council to adopt an amended version of the budget. A councilor moved to adopt Resolution 26‑12 version B, which includes the settlement appropriation, and the council approved the motion by roll call.
Council also approved Resolution 26‑11, the formal election to receive state revenue sharing for FY 2026–27. Both votes were recorded by roll call; council members voting in favor were recorded during the roll call conducted after each motion.
What happens next: staff will implement the adopted appropriations for the new fiscal year beginning July 1, 2026, and recommended community grant awards will be brought back on July 7 for formal approval from the $175,000 community grants budget included in next year’s appropriations.
