The workshop focused on two primary topics: the budget and homelessness. Discussions regarding the budget cycle centered on planning for the Fiscal Year 2027 budget, strategic plan alignment, revenue projections, and known budget pressures. A presentation detailed the 5-year strategic plan, emphasizing three pillars: providing a sustainable foundation for health, safety, and mobility; enhancing quality of life through equitable human services and opportunities; and promoting economic prosperity. Specific work included improving emergency service response capacity, which involves coordination between emergency communications (911), fire rescue, and traffic operations/GIS for route efficiency. Other strategic areas covered include community resilience, protecting critical assets through coastal mapping and flood monitoring (like the Honu system), and managing rapid growth via comprehensive plan updates. Progress on affordable housing supply using CDBGDR funds was mentioned. The homelessness topic was noted to be a significant issue for which specific presentation was planned later in the workshop.
