The council approved Resolution No. 874 to adopt the 2027 budget calendar and a minimally revised fiscal mission statement and goals. Director Kelly Beach told council the Financial & Planning Leadership Committee reviewed the materials and recommended adding a line allowing proceeds from a major asset sale to be used in an emergency; otherwise the mission statement remains unchanged.
Beach said the calendar follows deadlines set by state law (RCW) and that the recommended schedule allows staff and stakeholders time for meaningful review. After brief council discussion about the length of the budget process, the council moved and passed the resolution by voice vote.
