The Cayce City Council adopted the fiscal year 2026–27 General Fund budget and approved related capital allocations at its June 11 special called meeting.

Mayor Pro Tem Phil Carter moved to approve second reading of the budget ordinance (Ordinance 2026–04); Council Member Alice Rose seconded and the amended motion passed 4–1 by roll call.
Conley presented the opening budget figures during the public hearing, saying the materials showed the Utility Fund total as $46,288,092; during the second-reading motion council referenced a Utilities Fund figure of $55,104,592 in the motion text. The council adopted the General Fund Capital Allocation Plan for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2027, as part of the approved motion.
The council did not receive public testimony during the hearing. Council members thanked staff for preparatory work on the budget; several members asked staff to continue outreach and to present additional details where requested. The minutes record no named dissenting vote beyond the 4–1 tally; the record does not attribute individual yea/nay votes to specific council members.
