Council waives readings and adopts 2026 appropriation amendment ORD-26-015
Summary
Council suspended rules to waive second and third readings and unanimously adopted ORD-26-015, an amendment to the 2026 appropriation ordinance; Finance Director Jackson said budget lines showing near-100% insurance are encumbered.
Council member Will Bennett moved to suspend rules and waive further readings of ORD-26-015, an ordinance to amend the 2026 appropriation ordinance; the motion and the subsequent motion to adopt passed 7–0. Finance Director Jackson said the apparent high percentages for insurance lines reflect encumbrances (purchase orders), not unspent funds.
The meeting record does not provide line-item details of the amendment; Council approved adopting the change immediately after waiving the readings. Staff indicated they are preparing 2027 appropriations work and will present additional budget statistics after the pool season.
