Our latest episode of Your City, Answered takes a closer look at a key question in local government: how does the City decide what to fund? Host Ran Northam talks with Budget and Management Services Director Sadia Sattar about how the annual budget is shaped by community priorities and the City’s core values. Sattar explains how resident input guides the process from start to finish, and how the City balances its budget using revenues that come primarily from taxes and service fees.
