FY 2025-26 Priorities Review / FY 2026-27 Priorities Outlook

Recommended

Presented by Interim CM Hogencamp; no committee recommendation recorded.

Debated

Hogencamp reviewed Resolution No. 25-64 (the current FY 2025-26 priorities) and presented a memorandum outlining proposed priorities for FY 2026-27, attached to the minutes as Attachment A. The seven proposed priority areas are: Stormwater Management and Resiliency, Environmental Stewardship, Public Works and Utilities, Public Safety, Parks and Programming, Financial Stability and Accountability, and Communication and Customer Service. The CM's memo is detailed — story-worthy specifics include floodproofing all 33 lift stations, a Saltmarsh Restoration Pilot Program, E-bike 2.0 legislation, a 16th Street Walkover replacement, an Open Data Transparency Portal, and a Citizens Academy. Items marked with a red-circled check on the dot-vote sheets (Attachment B) indicate priorities anticipated to be completed within the current fiscal year.
