The Galena City Council voted to approve the city’s fiscal year 2026–27 operating budget during its April 13, 2020 meeting.
Councilors said the budget had been discussed at a prior work session and that members of the public had opportunities to comment before the vote. The motion to adopt the budget (item 26 C‑0152) passed on a roll call vote; council members present voted in favor and the mayor declared the motion carried.
The council did not amend the presented document at the meeting. Members said it reflected priorities discussed in the work session and would fund the city’s operating needs for the coming fiscal year. The adoption now allows staff to begin implementing the budget and to make next‑year payments as scheduled.
The vote concluded routine agenda business and the council moved on to separate capital and departmental items.
The council also approved other routine items on the agenda later in the meeting, including a capital financing measure and a license request for a parking lot project.
