June 29 budget hearing opens comment on FY2027 spending plan
Teton County commissioners will take public comment June 29 before adopting the FY2027 budget the next day, with proposed spending now showing $10.86 million for Fire/EMS, $12.76 million for Parks and Recreation, and $3.27 million in capital projects.
Teton County commissioners will hold a public budget hearing at 9:30 a.m. Monday, giving residents one formal shot to weigh in before the board adopts the fiscal year 2027 budget on June 30, according to the Board of County Commissioners Meeting Agenda. Earlier budget materials show where some of the bigger numbers are landing: $10,863,964 for Fire/EMS, $12,763,179 for Parks & Recreation, and $3.27 million in capital projects across the proposed plan, based on the county's spring Special Joint Meeting Agenda Packet.
If you care about how much the county is putting into wildfire work, recreation facilities, housing and transportation, this is the meeting to watch. The county's own budget calendar shows the hearing comes one day before final adoption, so Monday's comment period is likely the last public checkpoint before the numbers are locked in Teton County Board of County Commissioners Calendar. What is still missing in the public record is the final aggregate general fund total, which earlier materials said would be finalized at adoption.
