BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
As of the 2014/2015 Fiscal Year, the City Council has created an enhanced budget process. This process provides additional opportunities for the public to provide input into the budget document. Continuing this process into the upcoming budget cycle, the City Council has specifically invited members of the City's Commissions, Committees, and Boards to provide comments during the City's Fiscal Year 2020/2021 Budget Process.
Additionally, at the City Council Meeting on December 9, 2019, Council requested the FAC consider ideas for switching the Budget Process format, or ideas for outreach and engagement.
Members of the City's Commissions, Committees and Boards are further welcomed to attend any and all of the public meetings of the City Council at which the budget will be reviewed and ultimately considered for adoption by the City Council.
This item was continued from the February 12, 2020 FAC Meeting for further discussion.
