Summary

The RTC tabled county and city FY2027 RTC and public transit budget items pending city numbers; City Street Department staff said a new grader purchase would be for the city, not an RTC shared asset.

The White Pine County Regional Transportation Commission tabled several FY2027 budget items during its Jan. 15 meeting after county finance staff said the City had not provided numbers. Kathy Workman, White Pine County Finance Director, asked that the county tentative FY2027 RTC budget be tabled until the City presents figures; the item was tabled and expected to return in February.

Multiple related items were listed as tabled, including the county tentative FY2027 public transit budget and the city tentative FY2027 RTC and public transit budgets. During discussion of the city item, Mike Sturgeon, City Street Department, told the commission he would like to purchase a new grader and clarified the grader "would not" be an RTC shared piece of equipment; Janette Trask, City of Ely, requested a city meeting before decisions are finalized. The minutes record the tabled status but do not show final budget numbers or a vote on these items.
