Designing a city budget is a mighty undertaking, one that requires a great deal of effort, a lot of time and – done right – careful ordering of priorities and considerable input from citizens.
While Seattle’s actual budget document is the size of a large city phone book, for those who care about public policy, it is a candid picture of the city’s priorities and a road map for the future.
I hope you will join us on the journey. Passage of a budget is too important to leave to just a few – it takes a village – and part of that village is you.
