No other city in the United States allows its constituents to have budget input of this detail and impact throughout the entire budget development process.

ARE YOU A MEMBER OF A NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL BOARD?

More than ever, input from elected board members is critical to developing our City budget. All Neighborhood Council board members, click on the link below to tell the Mayor what you think should be the City's top service and program priorities.

Input from Neighborhood Council leaders has been effective in the past. The Mayor's budget has consistently reflected Neighborhood Council priorities. It's important that Neighborhood Council leaders continue to take advantage of this opportunity to influence the budgetary process.

Don't forget: your boards' budget representatives rely on your feedback to help set the regional budget priorities during the Mayor's Regional Budget Meetings on February 23, 2008.

Complete your survey today!
