Quick context to catch up fast.
Herndon’s proposed FY 2027 budget totals approximately $48.6 million for the General Fund and does not increase the property or meals tax rates. Staff recommended raising the residential solid waste fee to $27 per quarter, creating a multifamily solid waste fee, and ending the spring and fall bulk cleanup events while keeping on-request bulk pickup.

The budget proposal maintains current service levels but reflects higher insurance, inflation, and infrastructure costs. The Town Council did not adopt the budget at this work session; it directed staff to return with tax-rate scenarios, revenue assumptions, health insurance costs, staffing information, and an analysis of solid waste fees and cost recovery. Any remaining ARPA interest is expected to move to the Capital Projects Fund when that fund closes by December 31, 2026.
