Budget Committee reviews draft 2027 budget recommendation spreadsheet

The Budget Committee spent part of its April 18, 2026 meeting reviewing a draft Excel spreadsheet of the committee's recommended budget for fiscal year 2027, the minutes show. The moderator introduced the spreadsheet and members entered data into the file, but the transcript records no formal vote or adoption of the recommendation.

Transcript entries are brief: the recorder notes "Moderator introduced excel spreadsheet of Budget Committee recommendation for 2027 fiscal year" and a subsequent line states "Data entries into spreadsheet." No line-item amounts, totals, or motions to adopt were included in the recorded segments.

Because the transcript provides only that the spreadsheet was introduced and data were entered, specifics about proposed appropriations, department allocations, or revenue assumptions are not specified in the minutes and would require review of the spreadsheet or additional meeting records to report.

The committee completed other routine business at the same meeting, including approving prior minutes and electing a moderator; the session adjourned at 12:05 p.m.
