Minot’s 2026 budget debate is centering on how to ease the pressure of rising property taxes while still funding core services.

Council members remain divided over timing and priorities, with questions looming about how much to spend, what to cut, and when to seek public input. Jill Schramm with Minot Daily News has the full story.
