Quick context to catch up fast.
At the March 26, 2025 Town Council work session the Council received an update on the FY2026 budget. Staff reported a $6.4 million operating gap driven by rising departmental costs and lower sales tax revenue, and highlighted capital and maintenance backlogs (vehicle replacements $13M, facility maintenance $14M, street resurfacing $14.6M, fire capital $13.3M). Enterprise fund pressures included a $1–$1.5M projected Parking Fund shortfall, ongoing Transit contributions ($36.6M), unchanged Stormwater fees since 2020, and reliance on $2.7M/year in federal public housing funding. Council requested detailed follow-up materials and entered a closed session to consult the Town Attorney.
