Question: What budget reductions were considered by Staff as this budget was being developed that were not included in the Manager's proposed budget? (Councilman Chapman)
Response:
Early in the FY 2026 budget development process, the City Manager and the Office of Management and Budget instructed departments to develop expenditure reduction options of 1.0% of FY 2025 General Fund budgets. A total of $6.4 million of submitted reductions, efficiencies, and cost recovery options were included in the proposed budget. The attached list includes $2.4 million in expenditure reduction options that were considered but not included in the FY 2026 Proposed Budget.
