Budget Workshops

The annual workshops provide a review of the important factors that affect city budgets while helping attendees understand the state requirements for completing and filing the budget. The Budget Workshops are designed for city administrators, city clerks, and finance officers, but are open to all city officials.

In the morning, general sessions will focus on the changes to the budget process, common data needed, and recommendations from the state on common problem areas for city budgets. After lunch, attendees select between a session designed for those new to the state’s budget process or an advanced budgeting topic.
