Storey County approves 2026–27 final budget after adding funds for community grants
Summary
Storey County commissioners approved the county’s 2026–27 Final Budget and directed submission to the Nevada Department of Taxation after agreeing to increase the community grants allocation; the vote was 2–0 with the chairman absent.
Comptroller Jennifer McCain told the board the proposed Final Budget shows general fund revenues sufficient to support county operations and preserve financial stability.
“the proposed Final Budget reflects that General Fund revenues are sufficient to support County operations while maintaining financial stability,” McCain said. Commissioner Clay Mitchell asked the board to increase the community grants line from $10,000 to $20,000, which the record shows as a requested total increase of $40,000. Commissioner Donald Gilman moved to approve the Final Budget as discussed; Mitchell seconded and the motion passed 2–0 with one absence. The board directed the comptroller to submit the budget to the Nevada Department of Taxation.
The board’s approval is procedural: no public comment was recorded on the item. The action covers county operating funds for FY 2026–27 and reflects the board’s direction to account for the increased community grants allocation in the submission.
The county’s next procedural step is the filing of the Final Budget with the Department of Taxation as required by state law.
