Unclassified
The Unclassified section sets aside funding for citywide obligations and reserves that do not fit neatly within a single department. It includes prior-year appropriation overexpenditures, employee leave and compensation-related reserves, snow operations, bank fees, and the Ethical Standards Board.
The CY2026 Unclassified budget is $32,691,346, up $29,928,135 (1,083.1%) from last year. The largest item is $11,577,913 for overexpenditure of 2024 appropriations, followed by $9,000,000 for accumulated absences, $6,000,000 for bargaining agreements and salaries, $3,700,000 for holiday and compensatory time, and $2,238,433 for snow operations. These five items account for nearly all of the section; bank fees ($125,000) and the Ethical Standards Board ($50,000) are comparatively small, while prior-year bills are budgeted at $0.
