Current Work
I am reviewing implementation of the Council-approved FY2027 municipal budget, departmental spending, and the quality of supporting information used for financial decisions, while keeping future revenue projections separate from current-year obligations.
Scope / Key Items
- Track implementation of the Council-approved FY2027 municipal budget.
- Compare departmental spending and budget trends with prior fiscal years.
- Review the factual support behind major departmental spending requests and changes.
- Monitor whether current-year expenditures remain aligned with Council appropriations and service priorities.
- Evaluate future revenue expectations carefully before they are used to support long-term spending commitments.
Why It Matters
Budget adoption is not the end of financial oversight. The Council must continue reviewing actual spending, supporting data, and emerging revenue information throughout the fiscal year.
Latest Update
The Council approved the FY2027 municipal budget on July 22, 2026. My focus now is on implementation, departmental spending, and the financial information used to support future decisions.
Next Step
Continue reviewing departmental expenditures and supporting records during FY2027 and identify issues that should be addressed before the next budget cycle.
