Here at Columbia Association (CA), we believe that our organization’s budget is a tangible demonstration of our priorities and values. This is when CA’s Board of Directors determines investments in CA’s programs and services, allocates funds for capital projects and sets limits for the Annual Charge and membership rates. Approving CA’s budget is one of the key tasks and biggest responsibilities the Board undertakes every year.
The budget input and approval process culminates in late February when the budget for the upcoming fiscal year is approved. CA’s annual budgets begin on May 1 and end April 30 the following year. That means Fiscal Year 2027 (FY 2027) begins on May 1, 2026. Click here to access past budgets and financial information.
The FY 2027 process included a number of opportunities for our community to provide feedback. Hundreds of people have provided their input over the last few budget cycles, most for the first time. Residents, community groups, advisory committees and village boards are all encouraged to participate. It’s important to us that your priorities are heard from the very beginning of this process.
Throughout the entire process, residents and members were invited to participate in Resident Speakout, which happens at the start of every Board meeting. Those meetings are also live streamed and recorded on YouTube.
