Council keeps compensation/classification study, defers facility/staffing study; asks for staffing cost estimates
Council agreed to retain a proposed compensation/classification study (~$40,000) in the FY27 one‑time list but to defer a larger facilities and staffing analysis (~$50,000) to a later budget year; staff will provide detailed cost impacts for requested FTEs and rationale for repurposing existing positions.
The full story
Council discussed onetime budget requests totaling about $708,000 and focused on two proposed studies: a compensation and classification update (estimated $40,000) and a broader facilities/staffing analysis (estimated $50,000). After debate about priorities and bandwidth, the council directed staff to keep the comp/class study in FY27 and to remove the facilities/staffing study from the current one‑time ask, with the intent to consider it in the FY28 process.
