Committee reviews draft 2025 governance and administrative budget, staff preview slides for full board
Summary
Staff presented the 2025 draft governance and administrative services budget, outlined strategic priorities (succession planning, legislative advocacy, joint sewer master plan), proposed three new positions, and previewed slides for the board meeting and a November workshop.
Staff presented the committee with the draft 2025 governance and administrative services budget and outlined two principal strategic focus areas: governance/organizational health and long-term financial sustainability. "What we present to you guys during the budget cycle is those priorities from our 5 year plan that we think we'll be working on in the year ahead," Sean said while describing succession planning, legislative advocacy and collaborative sewer planning. Staff said no action is required at tomorrow's board meeting but that the full board will receive a slide deck summarizing all committee budgets.
The draft includes three staffing changes asked for in the GNAS budget: a utilities position, an accounting position, and converting a part-time HR administrative assistant to full time; staff said the personnel requests are reflected in the numbers that will be shown at the board meeting. Staff also flagged new software and one-time consultant funding for IT and cybersecurity work, and said a November workshop will prepare the district for final budget approval at the November board meeting.
