The Cape Cod Commission has presented its proposed fiscal 2027 budget priorities.
The proposed budget reflects an overall increase of around three-percent.
The increase is primarily driven by salaries, benefits, and projected health insurance costs.
During its regular meeting on Wednesday, the commission also highlighted the continued implementation of the regional policy plan, economic development strategy, regional housing and water quality initiatives.
The commission's revenue projections include expected increases in IT services, laboratory operations, court reimbursements and registry fees.
