Coats commissioners agree to begin budget talks earlier, set January follow-up work session
Summary
Board members concluded they must start budget discussions sooner than in prior years and recorded plans to continue planning in a January work session to address urgent departmental needs.
Commissioners concluded the town should shift to an earlier budget calendar and scheduled follow-up work in January to continue prioritizing departmental requests. The minutes state, "Need to meet earlier than previous years for budget discussions. Schedule another work session in January."
The board did not adopt any formal budget changes at the session; rather, members used the rotation-with-directors format to identify priorities and to request additional staff work on revenue options and prioritization. The minutes do not include specific dates for the January meeting or details of which revenue sources will be considered.
