Transfers & Collective Bargaining

FY27 Proposed: $1,435,650 · Change vs FY26: +$493,369 (+52.36%) · Share of total budget: 0.9%

Beyond the four major departments, the Operating Budget also funds three General Fund transfers that support facilities the City operates outside its core departments, plus a contingency for collective bargaining negotiations still in progress.

The three transfers fund the Indoor Pool, Prescott Park, and the Community Campus — totalling $975,650, an increase of $33,369 or 3.54% over FY26. The City also sets aside $460,000 in a Collective Bargaining Contingency to cover the five (of fifteen) collective bargaining units whose contracts expire at the end of FY26 and are still in negotiation. The contingency was not in the FY26 adopted budget, which is why the year-over-year change looks large in percentage terms.
