Subject
Fiscal Year 2023-24 Budget Workshop II
Recommendation
No action required by City Council. This is a presentation only.
Background
Budget Workshops I and II allow City Council to gather an understanding of the City’s operations and intended fiscal direction prior to the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Budget adoption. Collaboration between Administration, Finance, and departments in the weeks preceding these presentations, has identified operational efficiencies and areas with cost-savings potential. With a challenging economic outlook, focus is on optimizing resources to continue to provide the community with high quality service without depleting reserves.
On May 2, 2023, during the Budget Workshop I presentation, staff covered the previous year's highlights and the vision for the City departments through an overview of the Citywide Proposed Fiscal Year budget that will be brought to City Council for approval in June. Council provided initial feedback and requested to see different scenarios related to the Wellness Equity Alliance - health related services. The City Administrator and Finance Director continued to work with departments to find areas for costs savings and increased revenues during the weeks that followed.
Accordingly, this Budget Workshop II will cover the changes in General Fund and the Enterprise Funds from the previous version of the budget presented to Council to the current iteration; and, the Director of Health and Environmental Control will present different implementation options for the Wellness Equity Alliance.
