PROPOSED REGULAR MAY MEETING DATE RESCHEDULING

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff proposes rescheduling the regular May meeting of the Budget and Finance Commission from May 14, 2026 to May 26, 2026 to provide for more substantive discussion on the Proposed Budget. Staff will deliver the Proposed Budget to City Council on May 16 as required by City Charter, and will present the budget to the Council on May 19, 2026. Moving the regular meeting to May 26 will mean that Council can meaningfully discuss the Proposed Budget provided to Council in advance of Council’s dedicated budget discussions on June 2 (operations focus), June 9 (capital focus), and June 16 (budget adoption and fee resolution adoption). The Commission will have an additional opportunity for budget discussion at its regular June meeting, June 11, 2026 prior to adoption.
Staff anticipates that this proposed schedule will allow for more in-depth Commission discussion and additional time for Council to consider Commission input in advance of budget discussions and adoption.
