PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Berkshire Regional Planning Commission has a "conservative" budget for fiscal year 2025 with a nearly 6 percent increase.
On Thursday, the commission approved a $6,640,005 budget for FY25, a $373,990 increase from the previous year. The spending plan saw less growth from FY24 to FY25, as the FY23 to FY24 increase was more than $886,000, or over 16 percent.
Executive Director Thomas Matuszko said there aren't any dramatic changes.
"This is very much different than a municipal budget in that it's not a controlling budget or a limiting budget," he said. "It is really just our best estimate of our ability to afford to operate."
The increase is largely due to new grants for public health programs, environmental and energy efforts, economic development, community planning, and the transportation program.
"We have a lot of grants and a lot of applications in. If any of those are awarded, which I'm sure there's going to be many of them, we would shift gears and if we have to add staff or direct expenses, we would," office manager Marianne Sniezek explained.
"But the budget that we have now is conservative and it covers all our expenses."
The budget was endorsed by the finance and executive committee before reaching the full planning commission.
