The Paso Robles city council’s next meeting is tonight at 6. On tonight’s agenda is the city’s first quarterly financial budget report and update for the 2025 – 26 budget.
The agenda says that the city is on track to spend roughly 96.4% of appropriations for the year-end, consistent with historical spending. However, the city states that revenue growth has begun to flat-line and slow, in part due to transient occupancy tax flat-lining. This is the city’s third-largest general fund revenue source, coming primarily from tourism.
This review will also amend the budget for $1.9 million, with about $680,000 being amended to write-off the parking fund loan, and $300,000 for the settlement between the city of Paso Robles and councilman Chris Bausch.
You can attend tonight’s meeting in the Norris room at 6 in person, or listen right here on KPRL.
