City Budget: Responding to Community Concerns |
| In conjunction with all city departments, the
City Manager prepares and presents a proposed budget to the City Council each June, in anticipation of adoption by the City Council for the fiscal year which begins July 1. Public hearings are held beginning in January and several times more before final adoption, ensuring that the
city's
annual budget takes into account community needs, interests and priorities. The City Manager's Budget Message provides a thorough but concise description of the budget process, priorities and purpose of the planned expenditures for the current fiscal year. |
