Budget Planning

The line item 'PURCHASED POWER' in the Utility Fund/Electrical detail was budgeted at $3,110,000 for FY 2026-2027. The amended budget adopted on Oct. 13, 2026 shows the city continues to buy wholesale electric supply rather than self-generate it. No supplier is named, but the budget size makes this a significant utility procurement signal. The line remained essentially flat from FY 2025-2026 Adopted, indicating an ongoing incumbent relationship or renewal need.
