The St. Louis Board of Aldermen Budget and Public Employees Committee heard a presentation from Budget Director Paul Payne on the proposed FY27 operating plan — a $1.41 billion budget with a $637.1 million general fund — and then took more than an hour of public comment focused overwhelmingly on opposition to increases in the police budget and calls to fully fund programs such as Right to Counsel, Code Blue, and North City tornado recovery. Committee members said subpoenas were issued to compel the Board of Police Commissioners to appear before the committee and that amendments will be considered next week.
