The Shelton Metropolitan Park District held a special meeting on November 3, 2026. The board considered preliminary 2027 property-tax and budget resolutions. Finance staff reported a proposed 1% levy increase, from a 2026 highest lawful levy of $640,120.41 to $646,521.61, an increase of $6,401.20; estimated additional amounts would bring the total increase to $15,106.91. The board voted to forward resolution SMPD 44-0926 to its November 17 action agenda for further consideration. It also forwarded preliminary budget resolution SMPD 45-0926 to that agenda; neither resolution was finally adopted at this meeting.

The preliminary budget estimates $658,227 in revenue and $708,850 in authorized expenditures, reducing the fund balance by just over $50,000 to an estimated $88,683. Expenditures include $30,000 for a parks impact fee study. Staff also reported plans to remove the deteriorating shelter at 6th Street Park and hopes to replace it with picnic tables, but no contract award, vendor selection, or purchase approval was presented. No other procurement action was identified.
