RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Commission discuss potential topics for the PRCS Commission’s Fiscal Year 2019-2020 Budget Recommendations to the City Council.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Beginning in Fiscal Year 2014/2015, the City Council instituted an enhanced budget process. This process provides additional opportunities for the public to provide input into the budget document. Further, the City Council now specifically invites members of the City’s Commissions, Committees, and Boards to provide comments during the City’s budget process.
The City’s official budget process typically begins in March of each year. However, preparations and discussions regarding the budget often take place earlier. For the Fiscal Year 2018-2019 PRCS Department Budget, the Commission began discussions in January 2018, continued the discussion at the February meeting and finalized the budget recommendations to the City Council at the March 21, 2018 meeting. The correspondence containing the PRCS Commission Fiscal Year 2018-2019 budget recommendations to the City Council was provided as an Attachment to the December 4, 2018 staff report regarding reviewing the Department’s Fiscal Year 2018-2019 Budget materials. At that meeting, the Commission requested a report on the status of the Fiscal Year 2018-2019 budget recommendations made by both the PRCS Commission and PRCS Department staff. This information has been provided as Attachment 1.
