The Coconino County Board of Supervisors held a budget meeting on April 29, 2026, focusing extensively on departmental budget presentations and discussions related to procurement, contract management, and fiscal planning. Key procurement-related topics included the finance department's ERP cloud migration project with recurring software licensing costs, facilities management's capital improvement projects and security infrastructure upgrades, and economic development's request for funding to develop a natural resource management plan and continue participation in the Real AZ collaborative. The board also discussed the diversity councils' budget carryover policy, ultimately agreeing to allow carryover for the current year with parameters for future requests. A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to deliberating the travel stipend for supervisors, with the board reaching consensus to revert to mileage reimbursement and per diem allowances with specific carve-outs for certain meetings. The meeting concluded with acknowledgments of interdepartmental collaboration and plans for further discussions on budget wrap-up and travel policies.
