Village staff presented a $2027 operating and capital budget that staff called 'fiscally responsible,' highlighted a $21M all‑funds surplus largely tied to water financing timing, and asked trustees for guidance on directing a roughly $1M general‑fund surplus; trustees agreed to continue allocation decisions at a Nov. 2 Committee of the Whole.

After convening in executive session to consider personnel and budget amendments, the Oswego Common Council approved four budget amendments and adopted the amended 2027 operating budget and tax warrant on a 6–1 vote, with one councilor opposed.
