FY 2027-28 Budget Calendar
At a glance
Based on uploaded (human-made) captions.
- What: resolution 2026-367 setting the FY 2027-28 budget calendar, with an exhibit of committee schedules and breaks around the budget work.
- Where it stands: referred to the full Council with a "do pass" recommendation, 9-3 (Zimmerman, Smith and Pirtle-Guiney opposed). The full Council takes it up October 22.
- Contested: the mayor's proposed budget hearing on April 22 falls on Passover; Council President Dunphy will bring an amendment moving it to the Friday (April 23) and restoring the missing Thanksgiving break.
The calendar
- Work sessions from late January on base budget information, a budget report in February, budget priorities to the mayor in early March, spring technical adjustment as last year.
- Mayor's proposed budget April 20, committee hearing April 22, approved-budget hearing May 17 to 19, adopted-budget dates similar to last year.
- Exhibit B re-adopts the committee structure with breaks aligned to the budget work; no new committees or recesses. Councilor Kanal noted a leadership election workgroup report could change the first lines.
