The June 29, 2026 recessed meeting of the Madison Board of Aldermen focused primarily on the approval and discussion of the fiscal year 2026-2027 budget ordinance. Key procurement-related topics included budget adjustments reflecting increased tax revenues, salary and benefit increases across departments, and capital outlay for new police vehicles. The board discussed the use of approximately $349,000 from the fund balance to balance the budget, with expectations of a revenue overage of about $400,000. Amendments to the budget were also considered to reallocate funds and cover unexpected expenses such as water and sewer leaks and changes in school resource officer funding.

Additionally, the board approved the appointment of a deputy finance director to ensure continuity in financial oversight. Discussions touched on grant opportunities for the fire department, challenges with volunteer staffing, and infrastructure projects including waterline replacements and road paving.
