Fayetteville AMP Commission adopts conservative FY26 appropriation document

The Fayetteville AMP Commission adopted the fiscal‑year 2026 appropriation document Dec. 15, completing the formal step that consolidates projected revenues and planned expenses for the coming year.

Staff told commissioners the appropriation document reflects no major changes since the November review and described the plan as conservative. Jennifer Walker reported incoming HMR tax information showing a roughly 4% increase over the current year budget projection but only about 2% above year‑to‑date actual receipts; staff said that figure was received shortly before the meeting.

Commissioner Whitaker moved to adopt the appropriation document as presented; Commissioner Christy Sanderson seconded. Chair Elvis Moy called for ayes and the motion passed by voice vote.

Commissioners asked staff to circulate the new HMR numbers (received that day) by email to members who had questions. The appropriation document ties back to the full FY26 budget presented earlier in the year and formalizes the revenue/expense totals for the commission’s records.
