The resolution establishes specific spending caps for three distinct periods. For March 1, 2025, through September 30, 2025, expenses are limited to $6,068,289 ; for October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026, the limit is $10,402,781 ; and for October 1, 2026, through February 28, 2027, it is $4,334,492 .
