Mayor Dion and Members of the Portland City Council:
On behalf of the Portland Board of Public Education, I and Superintendent Ryan
Scallon present our recommended fiscal year 2027 (FY27) budget for the Portland
Public Schools to you, in accordance with the City Charter.
This $179.3 million proposal for 2026-2027 is the culmination of a months-long
collaborative process involving staff, families and community stakeholders.
The theme of this year’s budget, "On Course for Student Success," reflects a pivotal
moment for the Portland Public Schools. We are currently in the second year of
implementing our five-year Strategic Plan, "One District, One Plan." Our plan calls for
keeping equity at the center, strengthening achievement, supporting the whole
student, investing in our people, and building effective systems that sustain
excellence.
This budget is designed to maintain and grow the academic and other
social-emotional gains we have achieved under this plan while pursuing operational
efficiencies and other savings to mitigate the impact on Portland taxpayers.
The Strategic Case for Investment
Two years ago, this district launched a commitment to keep equity at the center of
every decision. We are now seeing the measurable return on that investment. Recent
data confirms improved outcomes in both reading and math, with significant growth
among economically disadvantaged students, multilingual learners and students
with individualized education programs (IEPs).
Beyond academics, chronic absenteeism has decreased in the last year and we’ve
had fewer incidents of student suspensions. Fewer students are missing school or
being removed from class—more students are engaged in learning.
These gains are not isolated successes. They reflect the efforts of everyone in our
District, from custodians to HR analysts, teachers to principals, and everyone else
focused on improving experiences and outcomes for students. They demonstrate
that our Strategic Plan is delivering results.

Page 5
This budget maintains the core of that progress:
In Achievement, this budget invests in high-quality instructional materials for
secondary math. We are prepared to adopt a new, research-aligned program that
ensures all students have access to rigorous, grade-level tasks.
This budget allows us to expand early literacy support by adding education
technicians to first grade in three schools. This year, we piloted early literacy
education technicians in our Title I kindergarten classes—and early data shows
increased progress monitoring and positive academic trends.
We are also supporting development of a Local Black History curriculum, building on
our leadership in Wabanaki Studies, so that students see themselves reflected in
what they learn. This budget includes a half-time staff member to support the
development of the Black History curriculum, while the Foundation for Portland
Public Schools has committed to paying for any related non-personnel expenses.
In Whole Student, we are expanding pre-kindergarten and preparing to assume
responsibility for early childhood special education services for four-year-olds, as
required by the state. This budget includes a $5.1 million investment, expected to be
fully reimbursed by the state, and consequently at no cost to the District. Early
intervention strengthens kindergarten readiness and long-term academic
outcomes.
In Equity and People, we are proposing to extend leadership dedicated to student,
family, and community engagement and we’re budgeting for an equity audit and
Civil Rights Officer. We are investing in leadership development and expanding
tuition reimbursement and ESOL credentialing to strengthen instructional capacity.
In Systems, our budget will continue work on financial transparency and facilities
planning, increasing school supply budgets using an equity-based formula and
advancing the MainePERS reconciliation to ensure fiscal accountability.
Navigating Fiscal Challenges: Reductions & Revisions
The development of the FY27 budget was marked by significant fiscal pressures.
Under the state’s Essential Programs and Services (EPS) formula, Portland faces a
$4.1 million decrease in state funding in FY27. This reduction is largely driven by two
factors: a decrease in student enrollment and a significant increase in the city’s
overall property values.
On a slightly more upbeat note, we learned that Portland will receive an additional
$420,000 for FY27 that is included in the state supplemental budget that the
Legislature recently passed. However, it’s not enough to offset such a large loss in
revenue under EPS, and while the Legislature has now approved changes in the
4
Page 6
formula, the earliest that Portland will see any positive impact from the EPS revisions
will be FY28.
Less state funding means more of a burden on City taxpayers. Recognizing this, both
the Board’s Finance Committee and the full Board worked tirelessly to identify
savings that would minimize the tax impact while maintaining and investing in
student services.
Taxpayer Impact and Community Stewardship
We on the Board are deeply sensitive to the fact that school funding is a shared
community responsibility. Every amendment made during the budget process was
viewed through the lens of balancing student needs with the financial reality of
Portland residents.
For FY27, just as we did for FY25 and F26, we are presenting to you a budget with the
entire picture—including not only local funds, but grants, Title funds (federal
supplemental funds to school districts to assist schools with the highest student
concentrations of poverty in meeting educational goals), and the state
reimbursement for early childhood special education.
The Board’s recommended budget of $179.3 million consists of a local budget of $167
million and $12.3 million in additional funds. If approved, this would result in an
estimated 5.68 percent increase in the school portion of the property tax rate. For the
owner of a median-priced $566,600 home, the budget would raise property taxes by
$201.60 per year or $16.80 per month.
Conclusion
This budget represents a balanced, honest approach in a difficult fiscal year. It calls
for the most efficient use of our resources while continuing to maintain and
strengthen the gains our students have made in the past two years.
We ask the City Council to support this budget and send it to Portland voters for final
approval on June 9. Together, we can ensure that Portland’s public schools remain
on course for success, providing the high-quality education our students deserve
and that our community expects.
Respectfully submitted,
Sarah Lentz, Chair
Portland Board of Public Education

Fiscal Year 2027
Roll Forward Budget
20
Page 22
To begin our FY27 budgeting process, we established a Roll Forward Budget. This
represented a baseline - the cost of maintaining our current programs, staffing levels,
and services into the next school year. By quantifying our existing obligations first,
we ensured a transparent foundation before considering any new investments.
Key Drivers of the Baseline:
• Personnel & Benefits: We maintained current staffing levels, accounting
only for contractual salary obligations and a projected 9% increase in
healthcare costs.
• Operational Efficiency: Non-personnel expenses were capped at 2%, with
targeted adjustments only for inflation-sensitive expenditures.
• Debt Service: We realized a significant $2.7M savings from the retirement
of our pension bond.
• Revenue: We held revenue flat with the exception of a $478k reduction in
grant funding.
• Fund Balance: We held General Ed fund balance usage at the FY26 level of
$3.9 million and eliminated fund balance reliance in our Adult Ed and Food
Service programs to ensure their long-term sustainability.
Based on these assumptions, expenditures would see a 2.7% increase over FY26 and
the resulting baseline tax levy increase was projected to be 3.51%.
Since establishing this roll forward budget, we incorporated strategic requests from
school leaders and department heads. With the unanticipated reduction in State
funding due to dthe EPS formula, we carefully made reductions to ensure the final
budget is both fiscally responsible and focused on our strategic goals.

For the FY27 budget, we required detailed non-personnel
budgets from each department – built from a zero-based
budget where every dollar of non-personnel costs is justified
and aligned to the strategic plan. We also reviewed staffing
proposals to each department’s current staffing levels and the
priorities of the strategic plan. Shown are the descriptions of
each department, their full-time-equivalent (FTE) staff, the
initiatives of the strategic plan that they are responsible for,
as well as their overall expenses:

FY27 City Manager’s
Recommended Budget
Presentation to Finance Committee - April 16, 2026
Page 131
Budgeting 101 - Definitions
The City of Portland Budget is a fiscal plan setting out
anticipated revenues and expenditures for accomplishing City
services over the course of our fiscal year (which runs each
July 1st through June 30th). Setting an annual operating
budget is required by the City Charter.
The City budget includes both the general fund and several
enterprise funds.
Page 132
Budgeting 101 - Definitions
The general fund is the largest of the City's funds and includes
funding for basic municipal services such as public safety,
health and human services, and public works. The general
fund is supported by property taxes and a variety of other
sources including excise taxes, licenses and permits, State of
Maine revenue sharing and general assistance reimbursement,
charges for services from City Departments and more.
The FY27 City Manager’s Recommended general fund
operating budget is $278.5M. This is a $6.6M reduction from
FY26, approximately a 2.3% decrease.
Page 133
Budgeting 101 - Definitions
The enterprise funds are self supporting funds that rely on
their own revenues to support their expenditures. They do not
utilize any property tax revenue to support their operations.
The City currently has four enterprise funds totaling $85.4M:
● Jetport Enterprise Fund ($39.6M)
● Sewer Enterprise Fund ($35.2M)
● Stormwater Enterprise Fund ($8.8M)
● Fish Pier Enterprise Fund ($1.8M)
Page 134
Tax Levy vs Tax Rate
TAX LEVY: The City Council sets the tax levy during budget
approval, not the tax rate. The City tax levy is the amount of
property taxes required to be collected from Portland property
taxpayers to fund municipal operations.
TAX RATE (aka MILL RATE): The City Assessor uses the
property tax levy approved by the City Council and divides it
by the total taxable valuation of the City to come up with the
final tax rate (also known as the mill rate or the millage rate)
per $1000 of assessed value. The tax commitment and rate
setting process usually does not occur until midsummer.
Tax rates shown during the budget process are ESTIMATES.
Page 135
Tax Rates: Difficult to Predict
The tax levy increase (5% for FY27) is typically HIGHER than the
tax rate increase (currently ESTIMATED at 4.2%). As new
property is built in the City, the total property tax levy is spread
across a larger base of property taxpayers.
Tax rates shown in the budget process are ESTIMATES due to a
number of factors:
● Assessed values are as of April 1 of each year.
● Property owners may appeal their valuations and appeals may
stretch until much later in the calendar year.
● Final City mill rate is not set until the tax committment is
completed and filed with State in late summer of each year.
Page 136
Revaluation: Does not raise tax levy
One important thing to note - although the revaluation is expected to
result in a City-wide increase in home values, IT DOES NOT RAISE
ADDITIONAL PROPERTY TAX REVENUE. It simply distributes the
existing approved tax levy more equitably across all property
taxpayers. Although assessed valuations will rise, there will be a
corresponding reduction the tax rate, resulting in the same amount of
overall tax levy to be collected.
Although FY27 is not a revaluation year, the City does plan to update
values again in FY28 to ensure equity across all property taxpayers.
Page 137
Tax Rate: What is City/School Breakdown?
The City of Portland committed tax rate for FY26 is $11.98 and the
breakdown is not split evenly between the City / Schools.
Page 138
Budgeting 101 - Median Assessed Home Value
We typically present the impact of each budget proposal on the
median homeowner in Portland. What does this mean?
The median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample,
a population, or a probability distribution, from the lower half. In
simple terms, it may be thought of as the "middle" value of a data
set. For example, in the data set {1, 3, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9}, the median is 6,
the fourth number in the sample. The median is a commonly used
measure of the properties of a data set in statistics and probability
theory.
The median home value is the median assessed value of single
family homes in Portland is estimated to be $540,000 for FY27.
Page 139
City of Portland Budgeting 101 - Revenues
The City of Portland budget is funded by a variety of revenue
sources. Portland’s budget is one of the most diverse budgets
in New England and is 56.3% funded by non-property tax
revenue sources.
The FY27 budget includes total revenues of $278.5M, total
estimated non-property tax revenues of $156.8M, and a
required municipal property tax levy of $121.7M.

City of Portland Budgeting 101 - Fund Balance
Fund Balance Use / Restoration - Although we typically reserve fund
balance use for one time expenditures (such as those included
within the Capital Improvement Plan budget), we have in recent
years begun using fund balance to close budget gaps.
Fund balance is only recommended for use when we have a surplus
fund balance (i.e. a balance above our stated fund balance policy
thresholds) and typically in situations where the use of fund
balance is not expected to continue for multiple fiscal years.
The amount of fund balance being currently recommended for use
within the FY27 City Manager’s Recommended Budget is $4M. This
is part of a multi-year plan to return to only nominal fund balance
use within the operating budget.

Re: City Manager’s FY27 Recommended Budget
Pursuant to Article VI, Section 5(e) and Article VII, Sections 5 and 6 of the City of Portland Charter, I am
hereby submitting the City Manager’s Recommended $363.9M Fiscal Year 2027 (FY27) Municipal
Operating Budget. This was an extremely difficult budget to formulate within City Council guidance
given the increasing costs of goods, services, and labor, heightened funding uncertainty at the state
and federal levels, and rapidly rising health insurance costs.
In January, we began the budget process with discussions with the Council and Finance Committee to
set shared expectations for the upcoming fiscal year. The Council was briefed on the many challenges
facing the City in FY27, most notably a significant increase in the cost of employee health insurance, a
large increase in the tax levied by Cumberland County, a reduction in projected State revenue sharing,
and a continued rise in the cost of employee salaries and wages. Councilors indicated that in spite of
these challenges, they hoped to limit the impact to property taxpayers and not trigger cuts to longtime
core City services. Six of the nine Council members weighed in with specific budget guidance seeking
to limit the tax rate increase to between 5-7%.
When Department leaders submitted their budget requests this year, however, their initial requests
resulted in a proposed tax levy increase of approximately $22.5M (or 19% tax rate increase). When
combined with the non-department expense items mentioned above, that increase grew to over $24M
(or 21%). In order to achieve the Council’s recommended tax rate increase, we had to work with
Departments to reduce FY27 their budget requests by approximately $18M in total.
I truly appreciate the work Department leaders did to reduce their requests despite the need and
importance of the services they provide. They presented me with many options including, but not
limited to, position cuts and not filling vacancies, delaying expenses to future fiscal years, and raising
and expanding various fees. After much thought and discussion, and with an eye toward maintaining
City core services, we selected several proposed options in order to reduce the proposed tax levy
increase. The most notable of these being the reduction of 74.3 FTE’s from the general fund budget.
Although many of these positions are vacant, others were layoffs resulting from the wind down of
shelter operations at 166 Riverside Industrial Parkway. We also added or increased fees in a number of
Departments including Fire, Health & Human Services, Parking, Parks, Recreation & Facilities,
Planning & Urban Development, Permitting & Inspections, and more.
We additionally had to make several changes to our health insurance plan in order to help control the
rising costs. As mentioned above, at the beginning of this process we were faced with an over 30%
estimated increase in health insurance costs, which the City pays on behalf of its employees. We have
set to work at that time to reduce the City’s health insurance expenses. We were able to accomplish that
goal by eliminating coverage for GLP1s for weight loss and increasing premiums. We also plan to
protect the City moving forward by purchasing stop-loss insurance, which will limit our liability for
very large high-cost health insurance claims within our plan that we struggled to address this past
fiscal year.

Page 166
We have been continuing to work with our lobbyists, the State Delegation, and the City’s Legislative
Committee to address the City’s costs related to General Assistance (GA) reimbursement funding.
While Portland takes its state mandated GA obligation very seriously, data shows that we continue to
serve more people from across the State, and out of the State, than people who are from Portland. Due
to this, we continue to advocate for increases in reimbursement and the cost-sharing model between
the state and municipalities.
We also continue to work with the Council regarding how we operate and fund our emergency shelter
services. This year’s budget includes the elimination of the emergency shelter we operated at 166
Riverside Industrial Parkway (based on Council guidance this service ended effective early April 2026)
for single asylum seekers, as well as a reduction in costs related to our Family Shelter operation. Both
of these items are related to the decrease in the need for such services due to the pace of asylum seeker
arrivals slowing significantly.
Thanks to the Council including funds in the FY26 budget, we conducted a community survey in late
2025 that provided an opportunity for Portland residents to share their feedback and insights
regarding the programs and services provided by the City. The purpose of this survey was to
objectively assess and collect opinions and feedback on City programs, services, and long-term
investments; to support decision making that reflects community priorities; and to establish a
benchmark to measure ongoing progress.
High levels of satisfaction were reported by residents regarding core operational services, such as
public safety, solid waste services, and customer service from City employees. These results directly
underscore the importance and effective allocation of current budget funds supporting these
functions. The survey results confirmed that the community perceives these essential services as clear
strengths of City operations. This positive feedback validates the continued budgetary commitment to
maintaining and enhancing the quality of these foundational operations, ensuring resources are
directed toward services that consistently meet resident expectations and contribute to a high quality
of life within Portland. Because of this, you will see maintenance of core services and many of the
Council’s goals reflected and addressed in the FY27 recommended budget.
While I was pleased to see the high levels of satisfaction with City services, 75% of respondents did
express dissatisfaction with the affordability of living in Portland, and so it was very important for me
to bring forward a fiscally responsible budget recommendation within the Council’s guidance.
Overall, it was incredibly difficult to close the budget gap described above. This is despite our best
efforts to make revisions to Department requested budget proposals, set aside new requests, account
for savings from staff vacancies, increase revenue projections, and recommend fee increases. In fact, in
order to meet all of the components of the Council guidance, the budget I’m bringing forward
recommends the use of $4M in unassigned fund balance to bring the FY27 tax levy to $121,722,845 or
an approximately 5% tax levy increase.
When factoring in an estimated increase in the local assessed valuation of $150,000,000 in growth, the
impact to the City portion of the projected FY27 tax rate is 24 cents or an approximately 4.2% tax rate
increase. At this time, the estimated impact of this increase on an average homeowner with a median
property valued at $540,000 would result in an additional $130 in annual property taxes.1

It is important to note that the final tax rate increase will not be known until the Assessor’s Office
completes its assessment work and finalizes the tax commitment in late summer 2026.

FY27 DEPARTMENTS AND BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS OF NOTE
Total general fund spending for FY27 is budgeted to decrease by $8.5M or approximately 3.1% (before
consideration of County Tax and METRO Assessment). Inclusive of increases in County Tax and
METRO, total general fund and assessment spending is budgeted to decrease by $6.5M or 2.3%.
The following are some Departmental budget highlights of note:
Employee Benefits: The single biggest budget challenge of FY27 was the significant increase in the
cost of our employer funded health insurance. The core cost of the services has risen significantly. The
City has also been successful in filling vacant positions, increasing the number of employees and
family members on the plan. Although we are limited in the ways we can influence health plan costs,
we have made a number of changes which have reduced the total increase in this budget. In total, costs
of employee benefits (including retirement contributions) is projected to rise by $6.6M in FY27.
County Tax: For FY27, Cumberland County has informed the City that taxes will be rising by over
$1.3M (14.5%) and will be nearly $10.4M for FY27. This represents approximately 25% of the total
municipal tax levy increase in the current fiscal year.
City Clerk: The City Clerk budget for FY27 includes the anticipated minimum wage increases from the
citizen initiated minimum wage referendum. It also includes new software for clean elections funds
tracking, as required by voter approved changes to the City’s Charter. Overall, the budget is increasing
by $144k (16.7%) for FY27.
City Council: The City Council’s budget for FY26 included several one time expenditures that are not
being carried forward into FY27. As a result, the budget is decreasing by approximately $158k.
Parking: The Parking Division budget includes increases in fees and expanded hours of operation for
FY27. Most notably, the parking meters will be enforced for an additional hour Monday through
Saturday from 6PM to 7PM.2 Additionally, the City will begin limited hours of enforcement on Sundays
from 10AM to 4PM. One additional staff member will be needed for this effort.
Police: The Police Department budget for FY27 reflects the elimination of a number of vacant officer
positions. This elimination includes assumptions about how many officers we will realistically be able
to hire in the upcoming year. The budget includes a $3.7M increase in funding overall (18.4%) resulting
from the last City Council approved collective bargaining agreement.
Dispatch: The dispatch budget for FY27 reflects a $313k increase (approximately 6.8%). For many
years, dispatch employees were employed by both Portland and South Portland. The +1FTE reflected in
FY27’s budget reflects finalization of the plan to have all Dispatch employees within Portland’s budget.
Costs are split between the two communities based on census so there is no significant new cost as a
result of this shift.
Health & Human Services (HHS): As determined by the Council in early 2026, we have wound down
shelter operations at 166 Riverside Industrial Parkway effective in early April 2026 as asylum seeker
arrivals have significantly slowed. As a result, this budget reflects significant reductions in staffing
levels and expenses within HHS. The HHS budget also includes minor eliminations of vacant positions
at the Barron Center due to lower than anticipated patient census, and changes in staffing within
Public Health related to expiration of grants. Overall, HHS’s budgeted spending is decreasing by 8.6%
or $4.4M for FY27
Portland Public Library: The Portland Public Library budget is rising to approximately $5.4M for FY27.
In line with City Council guidance, their increase has been limited to 5%.

Downtown Portland workers are encouraged to take advantage of the Portland Downtown District’s Park
and Work Program and/or use public transportation whenever possible.

Page 168
Debt Service: The Debt Service budget is decreasing by $20.9M due to pending expiration of the
pension obligation bonds on June 1, 2026. However, the majority of this decrease is not having an
impact on the tax rate, as there is also a year over year reduction in the use of debt service reserve and
fund balance of approximately $11M, and a loss in debt service reimbursement from the School
Department and the Enterprise Funds related to their portion of pension obligation bond debt service.
METRO: As described to the Council in the late fall and mentioned above, the METRO budget included
a nearly $600k increase in assessment to Portland (20%) due to their expansion of service levels with
Federal funds which are set to expire over the next 18 months. Council was supportive of continuing to
fund these service levels with taxpayer dollars in FY27.
FY26 RECAP
Despite continued staff vacancies across City departments, City staff did amazing things in FY26 with
the resources they had available. I am continually amazed and proud of all the work they do on a daily
basis. Since a municipality’s budget is the primary policy document reflecting the Council’s and our
community’s priorities for the year, I feel it’s important for my budget letter to include key highlights
(as outlined below) from several of our departments for FY26. This is one communication tool that we
use to inform our residents and taxpayers about the services the City provides.
During the calendar year 2025, the City’s Social Services Division successfully transitioned 682
individuals from homelessness into permanent housing. Our Project HOPE (Housing Opportunities for
People in Encampments) and Resettlement program housed 160 individuals directly without ever
needing to enter the shelter system. For those requiring immediate stabilization, the City maintained
583 year-round beds across three facilities: the Homeless Services Center (HSC), the Family Shelter, and
166 Riverside. Together, these sites served 1,641 individuals, providing 164,883 bed nights (representing
over 451 years of homelessness). These shelters focused on comprehensive wrap-around services to
connect guests with healthcare and long-term supportive housing. Social Services also assumed direct
operation of the 2025-2026 emergency warming shelter. This move increased capacity by 60 guests
during extreme weather events, ultimately serving an additional 382 individuals.
Over the past year, the Public Health Division continued its efforts to provide essential services,
strengthen community health and safety, and respond to the evolving public health needs of the
community. Staff distributed 31,916 Naloxone doses and other harm reduction supplies directly to
clients and through organizational partners across Cumberland and York counties. The availability of
naloxone has been a driving factor in Maine's declining overdose fatalities. Clients reported 857
community overdose reversals (Naloxone was administered by someone other than a first responder,
resulting in a non-fatality) and a 31% decrease in non-fatal overdoses was tracked across Cumberland
County. With Opioid Settlement Funding, a Syringe Redemption Project increased the return rate of
syringe waste to the city-run Syringe Services Program by 22%, bringing the total return rate to 86%.
Staff are proud of the work to reduce overdose deaths and the risks of drug use. Additionally, patient
navigators made 4,516 referrals to connect clients with medical care, case management, substance use
treatment, and recovery services. Through the clinical programs, staff delivered free and low-cost
services to connect patients with essential services. Most common program engagement by patients
included: Immunization (2,866), Portland Community Free Clinic (215), Maternal & Child Health (97),
and STD Clinic (860). Patients are not necessarily unique as some see multiple services. Additional
highlights include: 101 patients receiving free optometry consults and eyewear through a short-term
grant; 110 patients utilizing DoxyPEP upon its introduction to the STD Clinic; and expanding
vaccination availability and reducing barriers to access by offering a walk-in vaccination clinic twice
every week.
The Barron Center, committed to being the preferred nursing provider for long-term and/or
rehabilitative care, received a 4-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. In the
2025 calendar year, they served 193 unique residents with a combined 40,246 bed nights (~equivalent
to over 110 years). A major highlight this year was the introduction of the Lucynt Machine, an
innovative tool that uses light and motion to physically and cognitively engage residents in a way that
389 Congress Street, Portland, Maine 04101 | 207-874-8689 | citymanager@portlandmaine.gov

Page 169
feels like play. Additionally, while still recovering from staffing declines that occurred during the Covid
pandemic, the Barron Center achieved a lower nursing turnover rate, outperforming 77% of skilled
nursing facilities nationwide.
The Office of Elder Affairs achieved significant success in 2025 by hosting its Age-Friendly Portland
summit for Portland's older residents. Other service accomplishments included: 455 patients receiving
care through their senior outreach nursing program, specifically designed for low-income seniors who
don't qualify for other in-home care; connecting 132 volunteers and 121 households participating in the
volunteer snow shoveling program to ensure safe, accessible paths and driveways, thereby supporting
continued independence at home; and 69 adult day program clients, many with cognitive and physical
health conditions, receiving 16,222 service hours of programming, offering essential respite for their
caregivers.
Our Parks, Recreation and Facilities Department is the proud steward of our parks, open spaces, and
public facilities. The budget supports the beautification and enjoyment of the city through the Parks
Division, which oversees planting of 200 trees annually, perennial plants, tulip beds, urban meadows
and orchards, oversight of eight miles of multi-use bike paths, and basic maintenance of our 67 parks
and open spaces spread over 1,400 acres. We added an additional Park Project Manager position to help
us better plan and execute capital improvements to our park system, ranging from court lighting
projects and ADA accessibility projects to new courts, athletic fields, tree planting projects, and 30 city
and school playgrounds. The project managers apply for grants and alternative funding sources, and
work to quickly complete approved CIP and CDBG projects throughout the city. We also funded a third
full time Park Ranger position to focus on park safety and cleanliness, as well as leading nature and
history-based programming for all age groups in our park system.
The Recreation division supports recreational activities for the community such as the Before and
After School Program with more than 1,000 participants, a youth basketball league with 500
participants, a Senior Adult program with over 500 participants, three city pools, and the Riverside
Golf Course. Over the last year we added four recreation program staff to allow us to offer 50 additional
before and after care slots for children.
The Public Assembly Division runs our city venues and cultural institutions such as Merrill
Auditorium, The James A. Banks, Sr. Portland Expo, Troubh Ice Arena, and Ocean Gateway. We hired a
Venue Manager for the Expo to oversee the entire facility, from event services to custodial, marketing,
and promotion, and will serve to activate and enhance the nation's oldest municipal arena.
We also continued to invest in maintenance and upkeep of our treasured public buildings, from City
Hall ventilation and efficiency projects, to access improvements at the Police Station and improved
living quarters at Fire Stations, to resilience work along our waterfront and piers.
For the Planning & Urban Development Department, 2025 included a significant level of both
development review and long-range planning activity. With respect to new housing, 1,440 units were
approved citywide, including 380 (27%) deed-restricted affordable units—the highest number of
approved housing units in the City’s recent history. Significant projects shepherded through the
planning review process included 125 Thompsons Point (255 units), 165 Washington Avenue (325
units), 61 Preble / 60 Elm Street (217 units), 9 Boyd Street (82 affordable units), and 1877 Congress Street
(78 affordable units). The City also saw 187 units from prior-year approvals completed and occupied.
Additionally, the City established a new institutional overlay zone for the University of New England’s
Portland Campus.
Long-range planning, transportation, and policy initiatives included leading and completing an update
to the City’s Complete Streets Policy, along with advancing several major efforts such as the
Reimagining Franklin Street initiative; completing the Forest Avenue redesign study to improve safety
and multimodal accessibility; commencing construction of the Union Branch pathway project;
securing a $2,120,000 Safe Streets for All grant for Brighton Avenue to support the City Council’s
389 Congress Street, Portland, Maine 04101 | 207-874-8689 | citymanager@portlandmaine.gov

Vision Zero initiative; advancing and completing updates to the City’s Hotel Inclusionary Zoning
ordinance; and initiating the City’s Inclusionary Zoning study.
The Department also launched several digital tools to enhance data capabilities, transparency, and data
quality, including the official digital zoning map; continued maintenance and enhancements to the
Housing Data Dashboard; the release of the Historic Preservation Mapper; and the recent launch of the
City’s Site Plan Application Mapper. The tools make thousands of pages of historic survey records and
photographs readily accessible to the public, allow users to easily determine whether a property is
historically designated, track data related to housing, easily understand a parcels zoning, and make
information related to site plan approvals readily accessible to the public.
Historic Preservation had another record-setting year, reviewing 600 applications. The program also
completed an update to the Historic Resource Design Manual, the first comprehensive overhaul of the
document since the early 1990s. Additional achievements included the addition of Western Cemetery
to the National Register of Historic Places and the award of three CLG grants: $3,783 to support staff
attendance at a conference, $14,332 as a pass-through to the Fifth Maine Museum, and $13,257 as a
pass-through to Mechanics’ Hall.
Our Permitting and Inspections Department continues to see its workload increase. In FY25, we saw
averages of more than 100 permits applied for each week, more than 270 inspections performed each
week, more rental units added to the City, and business licenses continuing to be applied for in vacant
storefronts. Those averages have continued through the first half of FY26.
In FY25, permitting staff processed 5,603 building permits applications, and the City’s five Building
Inspectors performed 7,316 inspections. The Business Licensing office is also consistently busy with
new businesses and renewal business license applications. In FY25, staff issued 1,525 business licenses
and performed 1,384Health Inspections. That office also issued 82 Marijuana Licenses and performed
323 Marijuana Inspections.
The Housing Safety Office is required to collect data on more than 20,000 units, staff the Rent Board,
perform housing inspections and investigate rental violations. This Office’s Housing Safety Inspectors
performed 3,531 inspections in FY25. The Rental Registration Inspectors conducted inspections on
7,657 during the 2025 Calendar Year. These account for 654 complaints and 7,003 proactive inspections.
Staff issued Long Term licenses for 19,673 units. They also issued 917 Short-Term Rental unit licenses.
Our Public Works Department continues to keep our city clean and moving. The Water Resources
division maintains 200 miles of sewer lines and 100 miles of storm water lines; 4,400 catch basins;
several thousand sewer and storm water manholes, and 500 lane miles of street sweeping. This
division also completed the construction of the Back Cove South Storage Conduit in 2025; the sewer
separation project on Hersey Street began, and when completed it will include pedestrian safety
elements. Water Resources also continues to line aging sewer infrastructure to extend the life of aging
sewer lines around the city. The Streets & Sidewalks team provides maintenance and repair of 500 lane
miles of streets and 200 miles of sidewalks including patching, rebuilding and roadside maintenance.
The Winter Operations team provides all plowing, snow removal and winter road maintenance to 500
lane miles of Portland streets. The Traffic team provides maintenance and repair of 130 signalized
intersections, 6,400 street lights, citywide lane striping, crosswalk painting, and in-house street sign
production and installation. The Solid Waste crew provides weekly trash and recycling service to
21,000 customers located on the mainland and all of Portland’s island communities, services for 250
public property barrels daily, dumpster trash removal services for city buildings, as well as yearly yard
waste, leaf, and tree collections. The Engineering team has 25 projects with MaineDOT in various
stages of development, seven FEMA-funded projects either under construction or in design, as well as
the annual local street and sidewalk paving projects.
Our Transportation Engineering team continues to work on a number of transportation safety and
calming projects, in addition to many of the components outlined in our Vision Zero Action Plan,
which the Council adopted in August of 2025 to improve pedestrian safety and reduce fatalities. In

2025, the City modernized its complete streets policy, transforming a long-standing vision into a data
driven accountability framework. The policy mandates regular reporting on key performance
indicators, ensuring that our commitment to safety, equity, and accessibility is backed by measurable
action. Significant complete streets construction also occurred in 2025 with the addition of 1.3 miles of
new bike lanes, 1.5 miles of new and improved sidewalks, seven new crosswalks, five new pairs of
rectangular rapid flashing beacon signals to improve pedestrian access, and one new transit shelter.
Portland’s local small businesses are the backbone of our economy, contributing to the City’s
authenticity and character. More than 90% of the businesses in Portland have less than 20 employees.
Portland’s local businesses have faced challenges in recent years stemming from systemic impacts
from the pandemic, as well as broader macroeconomic factors such as inflation, tariffs, and a tight
labor market. The Portland Development Corporation (PDC), staffed by the Housing and Economic
Development Department (HEDD), supports Portland’s businesses with a variety of grant and loan
programs that encourage job creation, business retention and expansion, and sustained economic
development. The past six months have seen a focused effort to support economic vitality in the
downtown district to encourage storefront activations, including the creation of a new interest-free
loan product for storefront improvements. So far in FY 2026, the PDC provided two such loans for a
combined $28,000 to two businesses on Congress Street, and expects to see continued demand
through the rest of the fiscal year for this product. The PDC also provided nine commercial loans to
date in FY2026 totaling $705,000. Of these, seven loans were to startup businesses, and two enabled
long time employees to purchase and expand existing businesses (Tony’s Donuts and Health
Resonates). The PDC’s financing programs are critical to supporting local businesses and creating
economic vitality.
American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds allocated by the City Council to the child care approved use
category were utilized to offer grants to aspiring daycare providers and existing centers to open or
expand, adding much-needed daycare slot openings to Portland. More than 100 new slots for care have
been documented. ARPA funding is also supporting the Childcare Voucher Collaborative, a program
that provides scholarships to low-income families to help with the costs of childcare while they are
temporarily ineligible for the State of Maine’s Child Care Affordability Program (CCAP).
HEDD also administers the Brownfields Program, which provides funding for assessment and cleanup
of environmentally contaminated properties to facilitate redevelopment. The City's Brownfields
Assessment Fund and Revolving Loan Fund are important tools available to support land revitalization
in Portland. In FY26, the City received additional Brownfields Grant Funding from the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for assessment work in the amount of $500,000, and $800,00
in grant funds to recapitalize the City Brownfields Revolving Loan/Grant Fund for clean-up work.
These funds have been, and will continue to be, used to assess and remediate contamination at several
sites in the city, catalyzing projects that benefit Portland’s residents and businesses. Since the start of
FY26, the City provided $1.35 million in grants to non-profit developers, including the Portland
Housing Authority, Youth and Family Outreach, and Community Housing of Maine. The City also
provided a $750,000 Brownfields loan to support cleanup at the redevelopment project at 465 Congress
Street.
Housing availability and affordability continue to be a focus of the Council’s Housing and Economic
Development Committee (HEDC) and City officials. The HEDC recently approved the release of the
2026 Affordable Housing Development and Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Application, drafted by
HEDD staff. The application will make available an estimated $270,198 in HOME funding and $1,989,361
in Jill C. Duson Housing Trust funds for investment in affordable housing, together with access to the
City’s Affordable Housing TIF Program. In 2025, the City Council approved the use of development
financing and tax increment financing for five projects that, when completed, will create 230 new
units of affordable rental housing, 10 new market rate rental units and eight new homeownership units
affordable at 120% AMI. Several projects financed by the City in previous years have recently been
completed and are now occupied by tenants or new homeowners, including condominium units and
rental units on two phases of the Dougherty Commons development.

The HEDD also is a steward of the waterfront as the City is a major contributor to its economic vitality
with ownership of the Portland Fish Pier, Portland Ocean Terminal/Maine State Pier, and Ocean
Gateway. Construction of the Confined Aquatic Disposal (CAD) Cell was completed in March 2025,
followed by dredging from December 2025 to April 2026 that removed over 45,000 cubic yards of
sediment from the Portland Harbor. Over 10,000 linear feet of berthing has now been deepened and
restored. Dredging efforts will resume in November 2026 for a final season.
The Portland Police Department answered a total of 72,926 calls for service in 2025, despite being
down more than 20 officers. Over the last several months, the Department worked to hire a team of
Urban Rangers to work collaboratively with police officers, park rangers, and city businesses to ensure
that downtown public areas remain accessible, welcoming, and well-maintained for all residents and
visitors. This group will serve as a uniformed, non-law-enforcement presence with a focus on building
positive relationships, supporting safe public spaces, and protecting community resources. The
Department also received an overall satisfaction rating of 72% in the 2025 community survey, notably
higher than the national average of 58.8%. Additionally, 71% of respondents indicated their level of
trust in the department was either high or somewhat high. The Department outperformed national
benchmarks in several key areas, including the quality of local police services (60.6% compared to 49%
nationally), response times (61.7% compared to 51.7%), and community programs and outreach (45.9%
compared to 42.1%). The Police Department’s Traffic team also plays a key role in our Vision Zero
efforts.
The Fire Department continued to be productive and busy in 2025. The Department has been
fortunate to stay fully staffed with 15 new employees entering the department over the last year. The
Department’s workload continues to increase with calls for service rising 2-3% a year, and the
handling of roughly 50-60 emergency calls each day. The Department has seen several cardiac arrest
saves with our recent rate of patients walking out of the hospital without deficits nearly 20%, while the
national average is below 10%. The Mobile Medical Outreach program, a community based medical
and social service effort for unsheltered residents, continues to expand and with assistance to our most
vulnerable citizens. MMO is managed collectively by the Fire Department and the City’s Public Health
division.
The Portland International Jetport continued its strong passenger growth in 2025 serving an all-time
record 2.59 million total passengers, which was up 6.3% over the prior year. This was driven by seven
consecutive all-time record months for passenger volumes, from April through October 2025. Seven
airlines currently serve the Jetport. Year-round service is provided by American, Breeze, Delta, JetBlue,
Southwest, and United; and seasonal service is provided by Sun Country. The Jetport remains a
substantial economic driver for the region. The Maine State Aviation System Plan noted that the
Jetport provides an economic benefit to the state of $1.175 billion, supporting over 10,000 jobs, and
providing state and local tax revenues of $86.5 million.
The Jetport continued its long standing industry recognition for exceptional customer service
receiving the 2025 Airports Council International's Best Airport at Departures of Two to Five Million
Passengers in North America, Most Dedicated Staff in North America, and Easiest Airport Journey in
North America. This is consistent with the 2025 City of Portland Community Survey, which found 84%
of respondents were "very satisfied" and "satisfied" with the ease of using the Jetport. Additionally, the
Jetport recently saw its rating from S&P Global raised to "A" from "A-" on declining debt, steady
passenger growth, and consistent demand for air travel in the Portland metropolitan area.
In FY26, programming in the Sustainability Office emphasized building community resilience. Our
Sustainable Neighborhoods Mini-Grant program allowed neighborhood organizations or groups of
neighbors to apply for up to $500 to help fund an event or project that would build connections among
those who live near them. We awarded 30 grants that supported actions in neighborhoods across the
city, including two on Peaks Island. Funded actions included a community dinner for residents of three
apartment buildings in the West End, a community gardening project on Rowe Avenue, a pet parade on
the Bayside Trail, a collaborative project to mend clothes, and a neighborhood Halloween dance party.
During the grant period from October 1 to December 31, more than 1,000 residents participated in a

mini-grant funded project and we are pleased to learn several projects continue as regular events in
their neighborhood. To build on this success, the Sustainability team hosted a Neighborhood Leaders
Summit inviting nearly 70 informal community leaders to exchange their work and discuss how social
connections make our neighborhoods more resilient.
The second round of our Electrify Bikes! incentives helped 30 income-eligible Portland residents
purchase an e-bike. Combining both rounds of incentives, this program has enabled 100 residents to
acquire a reliable, carbon free vehicle that may not have been accessible to them otherwise. It also
supported Portland's economy by partnering with local bike shops who can also help program
participants maintain their e-bikes.
Sustainability staff also implemented the Resilience Education Project, which highlights how
Portland’s built and natural infrastructure contributes to our city’s resilience to climate change.
Colorful signs placed near important infrastructure offer quick facts and QR codes leading to a detailed
story map; the map explains how specific infrastructure mitigates flooding and heat, while assets like
pools and playgrounds bolster social resilience. Examples of all of the signs are currently on display
near the Myrtle Street entrance of City Hall.
This small but mighty team also conducted several projects to educate people about sustainable
landcare practices in alignment with Portland’s landcare ordinance. This included the Landcare
Lunchbreak series that featured webinars about removing introduced plants without the use of
pesticides, selecting plants that provide food and habitat for pollinators, and avoiding introduced
plants that do not provide food or habitat.
CONCLUSION
I would like to thank Finance Director Brendan O’Connell, Deputy Finance Director Anne Bilodeau,
Budget Manager Sasha Pavlak, Assistant City Managers Greg Jordan and Dena Libner, Human
Resources Director Anne Torregrossa, and Communications Director Jessica Grondin for their
assistance in developing this budget recommendation and presentation, and recognize the hard work
and diligence of all of the Department Directors and their staff in developing their budget requests.
I’d also like to thank all City employees for all the work they’ve done in helping us address some
extremely complex issues over this last year, as well as the exemplary municipal services they continue
to provide each and every day. I’m proud of how we all worked together to keep our community strong.
Finally, I’d like to thank the Council for advising us on your priorities and working collaboratively as
we prepared and now review this recommended budget in more detail in the weeks ahead.
Sincerely,
Danielle P. West
