The city said the 2024-2025 budget transparency dashboard allows people to engage and understand the city’s budgeting process.
“This dashboard is more than a tool—it’s a commitment to letting the light in,” Deegan said in a news release. “We believe that when residents have access to clear and timely information, trust grows, collaboration strengthens, and accountability thrives.”
The budget transparency dashboard joins other transparency dashboards on the city’s website, including ones for departments like Permitting, Animal Care & Protective Services, and Public Works.
