A public hearing on the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Budget. The Council will hear public comment
before considering adoption of the City's proposed annual budget and capital improvement
program. The recommended budget is balanced with a strong projected surplus of revenues
over expenses. The budget enhances funding for building replacement and maintenance and
increases the speed of the City's paydown of unfunded liabilities. The total operating budget
is expected to be $331 million, with a record additional $71 million in funding for capital
projects.
