Community Engagement Opportunity
Austin launches its budget survey today
Wednesday, April 9, 2025 by Beth Bond
Austin City Manager T.C. Broadnax is working to shape the city’s budget for Fiscal Year 2026, and Austinites are encouraged to weigh in on their priorities. Through early May, the city’s Budget Priority Survey will be available in multiple languages. This survey follows a series of five community budget conversations that Broadnax hosted across the city from February through April to help residents learn about the budget development process and voice their funding priorities. “The community made it clear that funding should focus on affordable housing, mobility, and community programs,” Broadnax said. “This valuable feedback will play a critical role as I continue to shape the proposed budget.
