Commission aims to finalize 2027 budget by Monday; staff to return with models and legal advice
Rob asked commissioners whether they were prepared to approve the final budget at the next meeting or needed additional time. Commissioners agreed to aim for a decision by Monday; Rob requested at least one day after their direction to finalize materials and send them to the county operator. "It has to be done by the 10th of this," a commissioner said, referencing the statutory deadline.

The commission gave staff three specific follow-ups: legal review of the LEC/9-1-1 obligations, modeled wage scenarios (step vs. COLA and reserve impacts), and refined departmental impact analyses. No formal votes were taken; the commission deferred final approval pending those materials.
