Approval of Fiscal Year 2024/25 Operating Budget
City Council approved the proposed Operating Budget and Capital Investment Program for Fiscal Year 2024-25.
The City’s operating budget will consist of $105.4 million and capital outlay funds include $9.9 million across all capital funds. Employment additions to City staff and the rebranding of the Public Services Department to Public Works contributed to changes in the overall budget.
Councilmember Ken Broadway shared his thoughts on the budget overview. ”I wanted to thank staff for all the hard work. I know that budgeting isn’t just a one-week or one-month process. It’s ongoing, it’s constant and it takes a lot of time, energy and effort. We have a solid budget, we’re moving forward in a very positive way and in a sustainable way and am looking forward to continuing working with staff as we implement over 2024/25.”
