Boiling Spring Lakes votes 3-1 to fund Development Services Director position for FY26‑27
Summary
Commissioner Teagan Hall moved to fund the Development Services Director role in the FY26‑27 budget. Finance Director Brandon Stevens said funding would require about $36,000 including benefits; the board voted 3-1 with Mayor Winecoff opposed.
Commissioner Teagan Hall moved to fund the Development Services Director position in the FY26‑27 budget, arguing the role is necessary given the city's growth and the arrival of a new city manager. Hall said the position should also lead UDO updates, manage grants, and oversee FEMA-related documentation.
Finance Director Brandon Stevens told the board the change "is about a $36,000 increase in the budget, including benefits, the remaining planner, and the development services director position." Mayor Winecoff requested more time to review budget details; after floor motions and debate, the board voted with three in favor (Hall, Sherwood, Ausborn) and the mayor opposed.
The motion carries a budget amendment requirement and staff said the increase could be covered from contingency and fund balance appropriation if adopted.
