Officials in Portola Valley are considering using the town's open space fund to address a budgetary shortfall, but this plan requires voter approval.
The town's finances are strained as expenditure growth outpaces tax revenue, particularly due to rising costs associated with law enforcement contracts.
Finance Director Anthony McFarlane highlighted the need for urgent decisions, noting that the town has been relying on one-time funds to patch financial gaps.
With potential voting on options postponed until March, the council faces increasing pressure to find sustainable financial solutions.
