The biennial budget is the most important document the city produces. It shows how the city plans to spend money for a two-year period, from January of one year to December of the next.
The city is required to review its budget halfway through the two-year period, starting after September 1 of the first year.
Throughout the year, the city prepares some adjustments to the budget. These adjustments are called the “carry forward budget adjustment” and “year-end/housekeeping budget adjustments.” They are separate from the main budget document.
Distinguished Budget Presentation Award
The city received a special award for its 2023/2024 Biennial Budget from the Government Finance Officers Association.
The award represents a significant achievement and reflects the commitment of the city to meet the highest principles of governmental budgeting. In order to receive this award the city had to satisfy nationally recognized guidelines for effective budget presentation. These guidelines are designed to assess how well the city’s budget serves as: a policy document; a financial plan; an operations guide; and a communications device. Budget documents must be rated “proficient” in all four categories and the 14 mandatory criteria within those categories to receive the award. The GFOA’s Distinguished Budget Presentation Awards Program is the only national awards program in governmental budget.
