Parks staff outline FY2026 budget schedule and priorities
Summary
Staff briefed the board on FY2026 budget preparations (Apr. 1, 2025–Mar. 31, 2026), capital priorities and the internal submission deadline—reported as November 7—to Sheila, the city’s point of contact for consolidating department budgets.
Speaker 1 said the FY2026 budget cycle runs April 1, 2025 through March 31, 2026. Parks staff will project remaining current-year balances, identify capital items (for example, a new climber and soccer goals) that draw from capital funds rather than the operating budget, and submit departmental projections to Sheila by an internal deadline around Nov. 7.
Staff said completing projections even “halfway close” will help Sheila consolidate the city-wide budget. The board did not take formal votes on budget line items at this meeting; staff will return with more detailed departmental submissions in the coming weeks.
