From the meeting
The city gave an early 2027 budget update and flagged street repairs, public works building replacement, pool replacement, and higher wastewater plant utility costs as concerns. Staff expected a 5% to 10% levy increase and scheduled a budget meeting for July 27 at 6 PM, with the Public Works Director to discuss plant costs. This is a pre-funding signal, not a procurement yet, but it shows where capital and operating pressure is building.
Sellers should watch for which projects make it into the 2027 budget.
