Akron’s 2026 budget is balanced, sewer system upgrade continues to affect debt
Akron has balanced its 2026 budget, which Akron City Council approved in March. There are projected reductions due to loss of funding from COVID-era grants and other federal funding streams. The most expensive part of the budget is labor and employment expenses, and the largest income stream is tax revenue and assessments.
