Staff reported that Wagon Wheel and the 3280 well/tower work pushed roughly $7 million into the next fiscal year; a $500,000 grant is expected to offset part of that carryover.

City staff told the council that several water capital projects will not be completed this fiscal year and will instead be recorded as FY27 expenditures.
