Hays finance director: May revenues about $1.00 million, year-to-date sales tax up
Summary
Finance Director Kim Rupp presented the City of Hays May 2026 financial report showing May revenues of $1,000,004.12, expenditures around $2,000,009.26, and year-to-date sales-tax growth; the commission approved the statement unanimously.
Kim Rupp, director of finance for the City of Hays, presented the monthly financial report for the period ended May 31, 2026, and told commissioners: "Revenues in May totaled $1,000,004.12." She said revenues were down compared with the same period last year in part because of timing of sales-tax receipts and year-over-year changes in capital-project receipts.
Rupp reported May expenditures near $2,000,009.26 and noted several line-item changes: an increase in equipment reserve spending tied to a budgeted vehicle purchase, higher public-works costs for signal repairs and concrete, and lower capital spending compared with the prior year due to completion timing on projects including 32nd Street and Tallgrass 4th. She summarized portfolio positions: certificates of deposit par value reported at about $65,000,007.14, T-bill par value about $9,500,000, and a money-market balance near $4,000,001.52.
A commissioner moved to approve the finance statement and another seconded; the chair called the vote and announced the motion passed unanimously (vote recorded as 5–0).
