Budget 101

The City of Los Angeles's budget impacts everyone who lives or works in L.A., and the process for developing the budget for the next fiscal year (which begins in July) is now underway.

To help people understand what the budget means to them and how to get involved in shaping the tough decisions that will be made to balance it, I have been hosting community roundtable discussions. I met with community leaders last night in Hollywood and this morning in Glassell Park to explain how the process works and hear their suggestions and concerns.
