Would you like Houston officials to hear some of your thoughts regarding the city’s budget? Here’s your chance:
The city will conduct combined public meetings on its FY 2006 Annual Operating Budget, FY 2006-2010 Capital Improvement Plan and 2005 Annual Consolidated Plan.
Since 1984, the municipality has held public meetings to obtain citizen input before preparing the operating budget and capital improvement plan. These meetings are designed to provide citizens the opportunity to participate in the budget process through contributing comments and suggestions about needed services and improvements.
Meetings begin Feb. 7 and run through March 5, varying in location by each city district. Citizens interested in commenting at these financial planning meetings are encouraged to locate and contact their respective Houston City Council representative via www.houstontx.gov for specific times and locations.
I wonder if city officials would appreciate input on the numerous new revenue streams that have been implemented recently?
