Olathe residents can weigh in on a proposed spending change to the city's Vehicle Replacement Fund at a public hearing set for 7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 17.
The Olathe City Council will meet at City Hall, 100 E Santa Fe, to hear and answer objections from taxpayers on the proposed amended use of funds, according to a notice published by the city. The amendment would alter the city's adopted 2026 budget.
The proposal would increase the fund’s 2026 spending authority by about $9,216,753, from $12,950,236 to $22,166,989. A city staff report says delayed vehicle deliveries pushed purchases approved in earlier years into 2026, requiring additional spending authority this year.
Detailed budget information is available on the city's website and will also be available at the Nov. 17 hearing.
