Austin City Council · City Council Budget Work Session · 16 Jul 2026 meeting

Okay. podcast-host

Thank you on page 76 to the table expenditures by fund category and It's got the citywide operating budget and it shows that our debt service is anticipated to increase eighteen point one percent on that chart and podcast-host

So my question is, when do we project that type of increase is going to taper off before it begins to potentially crowd out other priorities that are on that table, or maybe it has already? podcast-host

76. podcast-host

Okay. podcast-host

Thank you, Mr. Abanino. podcast-host

Last question. podcast-host

On 74, page 74, talks about this is the employment growth forecast. podcast-host

And there's a reading, I think in figure 15, let's see, figure 15, where the employment growth kind of does this U-curve. podcast-host

From 2022 to 26, growth drops like 9% to 1.3%. podcast-host

And then we're seeing it start to rebound in 2027 projected. podcast-host

So my question is, in the near term, like fiscal year 30 maybe, is a reasonable rejection that we're going to hover in that 1.5% to 2%? podcast-host

Or should we anticipate like returning to 3%? podcast-host

Do you guys have a sense of how optimistic we ought to be in sort of the midterm? podcast-host

is there any narrative you guys have that's not included in our uh in our in the budget document that you just mentioned podcast-host

Okay. podcast-host

I appreciate that. podcast-host

I think that's all I've got. podcast-host

We'll save the department questions for different days, right? podcast-host
