The
City Manager, Finance Officer, Department Heads and other
support staff begin preparation for the next year’s fiscal
budget beginning in May of each year. The Five Year Capital
Improvement Plan (CIP) is reviewed as part of the budget
process. Each department develops goals for the year. Budget workshops are then held the third week of
August. The budget ordinance is then adopted at the first
meeting in September. Annually, the City Manager drafts a
budget message
to the Community, Mayor, and City Commission detailing
the upcoming budget year. In addition, the letter
includes budget highlights.
