KFRU Business Spotlight -- September 5th & 6th, 2026.  Mayor Barbara Buffaloe joins us for a preview of the first September council meeting to be held Tuesday night (9/8) because of the Labor Day holiday.  This meeting will include the final public hearing on the city's budget for 2026-2027 that will take effect on October 1st, the first day of new city fiscal year.  Still lots to talk about on the budget as there are a number of amendments to be voted on and more input to hear before the budget document is set in its final form to be approved at the September 21st meeting (although, there could be more amendments to vote up or down then).  Next topic for discussion after that will be interested to citizens of Columbia, is the Energy Code that will get it first reading on Tuesday night.
