City Reports Strong Financials for FY2025 and Positive Revenue Trends for FY2026
The City Council reviewed the city's financial performance for the fiscal year 2025 and the first six months of 2026. For 2025, the general fund unassigned fund balance exceeded the city council's 10% policy requirement, reaching 11%. Revenues were generally higher than budgeted, particularly sales tax and permit revenue. Expenditures were lower than budget, mainly due to vacant positions. For the first six months of 2026, revenues are up 6.7% compared to the same period in 2025, driven by property taxes and sales tax. Expenditures are up 10.8%, primarily due to increased salaries and wages, equipment purchases, materials and supplies, and contractual costs, with many increases being planned or related to storm recovery and reimbursements.
