  • What: the proposed 2027 budget for the Mosquito, Termite and Rodent Control Board, which provides mosquito, rodent and termite control for the city and its buildings.
  • Where it stands: 44 employees (34 general fund positions with 3.75 vacancies). Personnel rises by just under $300,000 as furloughs are reversed; operating is flat, and grants and fee-for-service work fund most insecticide, interns and research.
  • Risks: 2025 was one of the most active West Nile seasons; two human cases so far this year. Limited inventory means medically important mosquitoes take priority over nuisance mosquitoes.
  • Key people: Claudia Regal, Carrie Katone.
