Pima County Board of Supervisors Meeting - November 10, 2026

The Pima County Board of Supervisors held a study session and regular meeting on November 10, 2026. The Board approved a motion to enter executive session, 4–0; the reported executive-session items were for information purposes only. The study session reviewed preliminary FY 2027–28 budget planning and the County’s strategic-plan measures. Finance staff presented a preliminary $57.5 million General Fund deficit, revenue and cost assumptions, and projections showing the County approaching its property-tax levy limit in coming fiscal years. Options discussed included reducing the reserve target from 17% to 15%—estimated to add $12.2 million to available resources—expenditure reductions, limiting additional department requests, and changes to the state-cost-shift policy. No budget actions or procurement approvals were taken.

Supervisors requested further analysis for a continuation of the budget discussion on December 8, including the share of pay-as-you-go funding used for road repair versus other capital projects, the effect of eliminating the cost-shift policy, and options for reviewing vacant positions and court staffing. A possible 2027 bond package and future special districts were also discussed. No contract awards, bids, vendor selections, or other specific procurement activity were identified.
