Morgan Hill Budget Overview
FY 2025-26 Budget and Recent Trends
Adopted biennial budgetBudget adoption: June 19, 2024
Morgan Hill's CivicCause budget overview highlights major current-year budget changes, department shifts, recent trends, and the official public source documents behind them.
This Morgan Hill budget page uses the adopted FY 2024-25 / FY 2025-26 biennial operating budget book and the separate adopted FY 2024-25 through FY 2029-30 CIP book. The top-line operating card reflects the FY 2025-26 adopted General Fund total, the published FY 2025-26 operating margin is preserved as an operating-gap signal, and the separate CIP category summary is not merged into that operating total.

$63.3M
This figure reflects the General Fund budget shown in the imported source, not necessarily the full all-funds city budget.
Projected Deficit
$5.4M
Derived as current total revenues minus current total expenditures.
Operating Gap before reserves
-$5.4M
Derived from the current published operating-gap / operating-margin row.

Methodology and caveats
- Revenue comparison is General Fund-focused and uses the published adopted FY 2024/25 and FY 2025/26 rows from the Summary of Revenues & Transfer In table. Morgan Hill's current operating source is an adopted biennial FY 2024-25 / FY 2025-26 budget book. Current-year CivicCause operating totals use the published FY 2025-26 adopted General Fund rows. The operating budget and the separate Capital Improvement Program book are both official adopted sources and are kept structurally separate in the imported datasets. Revenue comparison is General Fund-focused and comes from the published Summary of Revenues & Transfer In table. Department comparison uses the published General Fund by Program summary rows. No separate citywide expenditure-by-object comparison table was imported in this first pass because the summary pages did not expose one as cleanly as the program table. The published General Fund Six-Year Forecast shows an FY 2025-26 adopted operating margin of about -$5.4M. This is preserved as an explicit operating-gap signal rather than being masked by beginning fund balance. Capital output is a high-level CIP category rollup from the separate adopted FY 2024-25 through FY 2029-30 CIP book. The FY 2025-26 category total is about $108.5M, while the adopted FY 2024-25 and FY 2025-26 appropriations together total about $169.2M. No figures were inferred from narrative text. Only published table rows from the adopted budget books were imported.
- The summary pages did not expose a clean citywide expenditure-by-object comparison table, so this dataset keeps only the published General Fund total expenditures, transfers, and operating margin rows.

- Morgan Hill's operating book includes a six-year forecast, but a clean department-level trend artifact was deferred rather than overfitting wrapped PDF rows.
