Budget Committee — August 6, 2026
The standard annual resolution of official intent lets Metro begin FY 2027 capital projects before the bonds are actually sold, repaying itself once bond proceeds arrive later this year and into next summer.
Metro Council — July 30, 2026
The council passed the annual bond ordinance funding the capital budget, with Metro Parks debt combined into the sale, and introduced a resolution of official intent for future GO bond issues.
Budget Committee — July 23, 2026
Metro is borrowing about $100.36 million to pay for capital projects already in the 2026 budget — with roughly $5 million of that for Parking Authority renovations the Authority itself will repay. Rates are around 4%, still affordable but rising.
