August 6 Budget Meeting
Working FY2027 General Fund expenditure material for twelve departments or functions presented in the August 6, 2026 called budget-meeting section of the binder.
Version-control note. The section is identified as the August 6 meeting packet, while individual department worksheets repeatedly say they were prepared for the July 30 meeting. The worksheets also use a September 30 YTD label even though the binder was inspected August 31. Those labels are preserved as presented and require clarification before being treated as actual activity through September 30.

Read Research NotesWhat the current record shows
- The twelve department totals shown in the packet add to approximately $5.82 million in FY2027 projections, about 9.0% above the same departments' FY2026 original budgets.
- Police has the largest projected dollar increase, rising from $2,773,356 to $3,084,883.
- The Executive / Mayor department rises from $275,888 to $374,048; the regular-employees line combines multiple positions and does not establish an individual mayoral salary increase.
- Financial Administration includes a projected $60,000 City Manager vehicle replacement line.
- Special Events includes a note that Auburn Ever After was formerly categorized under DDA and is being corrected to Events for FY2027.
Open documentation questions
- What the future-dated September 30 YTD figures actually represent.
