Community Input for the 2023-24 Budget
Mayor Malik D. Evans invited the community to provide input and learn about the City’s upcoming
Fiscal Year 2023-24 Budget. The Mayor gathered community feedback that will help him draft a City spending plan that advances his community-first compact to
deliver hope and opportunity to the people of Rochester and build a bridge to a
future of prosperity for all city stakeholders.
There were three
opportunities for the community to provide input:
- A Community Input Session was held at 6:30 p.m., Monday,
November 7 at the Willie Lightfoot R-Center (271 Flint Street,
Rochester, NY).
- The Mayor conducted a Telephone Town Hall meeting with city
residents at 6:30 p.m., Tuesday, December 6.
- The online Budget Survey was available October 26 through December 7. The results of this survey will appear in the Community Input Planning Process Final Report in the 2023-24 Budget.
