FY 23/24 Budget moves to final vote

The FY 23/24 Budget started back in January when LFUCG Departments and Divisions submitted their requests and priorities to the Mayor’s Administration.

  • Mayor Gorton and her administration then created and proposed a draft budget which was presented in April.

  • After that, Councilmembers met in small groups called Links and as a Committees of the Whole (the entire Council - called COWs) to review the Mayor’s proposal with LFUCG Divisions and make amendments.

Two weeks ago, Council met in a final COW and voted to advance the budget as amended. Their amendments added over $3 million to what the Mayor proposed and included:

  • $1 million to replace the roof on the Pam Miller Downtown Arts Center

  • $250k to update the 2001 Greenway Master Plan

  • Over $500k for Parks & Recreation to increase and improve ADA accessibility

  • $400k for two Small Area Plans for unspecified areas

This Thursday, Council will vote for a final time to adopt the FY 23/24 City Budget. To read more about this process and all the changes that have been made, visit our website. If you have thoughts or opinions on the FY 23/24 Budget, you can  email council to let them know.
