City Council Agenda Item Report FROM:
Ryan Cummins, City Manager Nicole Bredeweg, Treasurer/Finance Officer
MEETING DATE:
June 17, 2026
SUBJECT:
Budget Amendments for Fiscal Year 25-26
DESCRIPTION: As we are nearing the end of the fiscal year, staff is proposing the attached final budget amendments. These amendments are intended to align the budget with current year activity, adjust for revenues and expenses that varied from original expectations, and account for timing changes related to projects and capital expenditures. Overall, the proposed amendments reflect updated revenue projections, revised departmental expenditure needs, and adjustments to fund balance usage based on current year activity General Fund highlights include: •
Increased revenues from property taxes, permit fees, revenue sharing, parking lot fees, Oval Beach fees, interest earned, boat slip fees, miscellaneous donations and income, and use tax/election reimbursement revenue. A reduction in budgeted Oval Concession revenue, reflecting the change in concession operations. A significant reduction in the budgeted transfer from fund balance, reflecting higher-thanbudgeted revenues and reduced appropriations in several areas. Reduced appropriations in several departments where spending is projected to come in under budget. Increased appropriations in selected areas where current year activity is projected to exceed budget.
Major Street Fund highlights include: •
Increased revenues from county road millage, Act 51 fees, and interest.

Local Street Fund highlights include: • • •

Reduced contributions from local units and reduced use of fund balance, reflecting timing and scope changes for street-related projects. Decreased appropriations for maintenance contractual services and capital outlay, while retaining budget capacity for work that may still be completed or billed before fiscal year-end.
Sewer Capital Projects Fund highlights include: • •
Increased sewer fee and interest revenue. Reduced use of fund balance.
Water Capital Projects Fund highlights include: • • •
Increased revenues from water fees, water infrastructure fees, and interest. Reduced contributions from local units and reduced use of fund balance, reflecting the current timing of water-related capital project activity. Reduced appropriations for contractual services and capital outlay, while retaining budget capacity for remaining project costs that may be billed before fiscal year-end.
Motor Pool Fund highlights include: • • •
Increased revenues from motor pool charges, interest earned, sale of fixed assets, and miscellaneous income. Reduced use of fund balance. Reduced appropriations in several operating categories.
WORKSHOP DISCUSSION: Staff is presenting this item for Council review and discussion prior to formal consideration at the regular meeting. Council feedback is requested regarding the proposed amendments, including any questions on the fund-level changes, project timing, revenue projections, expenditure adjustments, or fund balance usage.
