The Finance Committee held a budget workshop on Nov. 1, 2025 and recorded committee-only votes on a series of departmental and special‑revenue budgets. Most items passed on unanimous committee votes (typically 5–0 or 4–0 when members were absent). The committee approved legal & administrative services (action 25‑1243), Valley Transit (25‑1244), wastewater (25‑1245), water (25‑1246), stormwater (25‑1247), public works (25‑1248), sanitation special revenue (25‑1249), wheel tax (25‑1250), subdivision capital (25‑1251), public works capital (25‑1252), central equipment agency (25‑1253, 25‑1254), parking (25‑1255), community development and housing grants (25‑1256, 25‑1257), industrial park land (25‑1258) and TIF budgets (25‑1259). Public safety and related budgets (police 25‑1264, fire 25‑1267) and numerous other departmental operating and capital budgets were approved later in the morning and afternoon. Many votes were routine committee approvals of the draft budgets; where discussion occurred it centered on program changes, capital timing and regulatory impacts (for example, wastewater permit reissuance and stormwater flood mitigation plans). Committee vote outcomes and counts that were recorded in the transcript are listed in the actions array below.
