Item 22 Passedunofficial
In plain language — from the agenda backup
This resolution directs the City Manager to take a closer look at the social services contracts slated for cuts or elimination in the proposed 2026-2027 budget, and to come back with recommendations. It matters because those contracts fund programs many Austinites rely on, and this step could shape whether they stick around.
