Sedgwick County schedules July 30 public budget hearing; advanced voting dates announced
Summary
Sedgwick County officials set a July 30 public hearing on the 2026 recommended budget and posted advanced voting schedules for the Aug. 5 primary, including in-person early voting starting July 21 at the county elections office.
Nicole Gibbs, director of Strategic Communications for Sedgwick County, told commissioners on July 16 that the first public hearing on the county's recommended 2026 budget will be held July 30 at 6 p.m. in the lower-level auditorium of the Ruffin Building at 100 North Broadway.
Gibbs also outlined election and early-voting logistics ahead of the Aug. 5 primary: advanced voting by mail began July 15, in-person advanced voting starts July 21 at the Sedgwick County Election Office at 510 North Main, Suite 100 (open 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday, and until noon on Monday, Aug. 4), and satellite early-voting sites open July 31. "This is your chance to provide feedback directly to the Board of County Commissioners about the 2026 recommended budget," Gibbs said.
The announcement was made as commissioners continue work on the budget calendar leading to an Aug. 20 adoption. County staff said they are attending district advisory-board meetings and can meet with citizen groups to explain proposals and gather input as the commission vets budget options in public sessions over the coming weeks.
