[Archived] Preparation of Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 Budget -- Input Needed

In October, the City conducted a survey to gain feedback on the outcomes and priorities that are most important to our residents. Based on the survey results, City leadership developed guidance for departments as they prepare their budget submissions. 

During the week of January 26, residents will have another opportunity to get engaged. Join City leaders to learn about the budget development process and provide input on where the City should invest resources to best achieve its FY 2016 priorities.

The City will host three meetings to cover the following focus areas: Healthy & Thriving Residents; Livable, Green, & Prospering City; and Safe, Secure, & Just Community. Each area is comprised of specific City departments and/or partner agencies. The City's fourth focus area, Accountable and Effective Government, provides support for all City programs. Discussion of this focus area - and the City's efficient use of resources - will be incorporated into each meeting.   

All meetings will be held at the Lee Center located at 1108 Jefferson St.
