Summary

County Administrator Matthew L. Walker said Bay Transit had its funding restored for both buses after Board feedback; the Board kept that funding in the draft while other revenues fell.

County Administrator Matthew L. Walker reported the county had restored level funding for Bay Transit's two buses "in response to Board feedback," ensuring the service line remained funded in the draft budget. "They were able to restore level funding to the agency for both buses," Walker said, noting the restoration as part of the recommended draft.

The Bay Transit update came amid broader revenue pressures: staff reported total revenues across all funds declined by $275,000 versus the adopted 2026 budget. The Board did not change Bay Transit funding during the session; staff included the restoration in the draft pending final state allocations and further budget review.
