Each year, the City invites input into the budget process, and we encourage you to participate in the 2026 Budget Engagement Survey below so that your input can help shape the budget next year. The survey is used as one of several points of reference in gauging public opinion.

  • Transparency and Accountability: We are committed to transparency in our budgeting process. Your feedback will help us allocate resources effectively and ensure your hard-earned tax dollars are spent wisely.
