Fiscal Year 2025-26 year-end budget reconciliation
The Council was scheduled to close out the books on the 2025-26 fiscal year with a $13.3 million reconciliation and appropriation. This adjusts county spending to match how the year actually ended.
Additional December Council meeting
The Council was scheduled to discuss whether it needs an extra meeting in December — a scheduling question that can affect how quickly late-year items get handled.
