The City’s budget is a financial plan that encompasses a one-year fiscal period from July 1 to June 30 annually. Budget input is solicited from City departments, Constitutional Officers, and outside agencies, with workshops and public hearings held by the City Council that also engage the city’s citizens.
The Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) is similarly developed by those same stakeholders for the capital needs of the city for the next five years, with only the first year of the plan appropriated.
