The council reviewed a treasurer's report that proposed a revision to the town's FY2026 budget to cover unexpected playground/wood-chip expenses and a tentative FY2027 budget that includes a potential $180,000 parks grant.
Treasurer (speaker 7) told the council the FY2026 revision would shift $23,895 from capital projects to cover the playground wood-chip cost and recommended increasing a capital outlay line from $44,750 to $45,000 to reflect recorded expenses. The treasurer also described a proposed FY2027 draft that includes a $180,000 parks CBDC grant as an investment on both revenue and capital outlay lines, noting that the grant spans multiple years and may be carried forward if not spent in FY2027.
"So on, your first page of 2026, we're going to need to revise the budget to what expenses we've had on the wood chips out here and our improvements to our playgrounds," the Treasurer said, describing the $23,895 adjustment and the $45,000 capital outlay figure.
Council members discussed whether to include the grant in the FY2027 document immediately or to wait until grant qualifications are finalized. The treasurer said the town had been awarded the grant but still needed to satisfy qualification steps before receipt and that the council would know the final status prior to the June meeting.
The council voted to accept the treasurer's report and pay the bills. The council also approved a motion (no roll-call recorded in the transcript) to accept the tentative FY2027 budget as presented and scheduled a public hearing at the start of the next meeting to take public comment on the FY2026 revision and the FY2027 tentative budget. If the $180,000 grant is not finalized the council agreed the line item can be removed or adjusted at that later hearing.
The town indicated a $21,105 net increase in the proposed FY2027 numbers and left allocation of that amount for a later decision in June.
Next steps: the council will post the tentative budgets and hold a public hearing at the beginning of the next meeting before taking final action.
