Town Manager Mike Sims presented Argyle’s fiscal year 2025-26 budget proposal at the Aug. 18 council meeting, which had funds dedicated to development projects, drainage and street maintenance.
Breaking down the budget: The net total expenditures proposed for FY 2025-26 is $20.1 million, Sims said.
The proposed FY 2025-26 budget puts funds in accounts dedicated to future town projects, including:
- $4.15 million will be put toward the town center project, which includes a municipal building and police department
- $400,000 will be put toward construction of the Argyle Nature Trail
- $190,000 will be put toward restoring Town Hall
Sims also identified four to six streets around the town that need repairing and set aside funds in the budget to tackle those projects, which included $1.5 million for asphalt streets and $250,000 for concrete pot repairs.
What they're saying: “This is setting up the budget for [these projects],” Sims said. “The actual streets would be council’s prerogative."
