Help us shape next year's budget
Every year, one of the most important things a city does is plan and pass an annual operating and capital budget. Tempe’s budget covers all services and programs for residents, including recreation and cultural programs, trash and recycling, streets, parks and multi-modal transportation options. The budget is a reflection of community priorities, which is why Tempe needs community input to help allocate the funds.
Preparations for the upcoming fiscal year’s operating and capital budgets begins in November and concludes with the adoption of the final budgets in June and property tax levy in July
Tempe is deeply rooted in its commitment to be an inclusive, transparent, and high performing organization. Holding public meetings and providing community members the opportunity to provide input about services and programs for the upcoming budget aligns to City Council Strategic Priority – Strong Community Connections and performance measure 2.15 – Feeling invited to participate in city decisions.
