City Council - May 19, 2026
Council rebalanced the 2026 budget: nearly $3 million in capital projects moved to 2027 (pedestrian tunnel, park shelters, pool improvements), and nearly $470,000 freed up because the Golf Village bonds were paid off early. $20,000 seeded new community funds with the Delaware County Foundation.
