Recurring deficits our calculation

General fund spending (incl. transfers out) exceeded revenues (incl. transfers in) in 2023, 2024, 2025, and operating funds overall spent more than they took in in 2023, 2024, 2025 (last 3 AFR years). Planned use of fund balance can cause this; check the adopted budgets.
