Commissions hold community town halls
Friday, February 11, 2022 by Tai Moses
In preparation for budget season, the city’s quality of life commissions will be holding three virtual town halls to give community members an opportunity to weigh in with their spending priorities for the 2022-23 fiscal year. According to a city news release, the town hall meetings “will serve as listening sessions for the commissions to decide what communities need right now and how their budget recommendations can address those needs.” The virtual meetings, which will will last about two hours each, are scheduled for the following dates:
- Wednesday, Feb. 16, 6:30 p.m., Town Hall on Affordability and Resiliency
- Thursday, Feb. 24, 6:30 p.m., Town Hall on Access and Engagement
- Saturday, Feb. 26, 10 a.m., Town Hall on Public Safety and Health
Register here to attend. Zoom links will be emailed after registration. Those who are unable to attend a meeting but still want to share their feedback with the commissions may email budgetqa@austintexas.gov. All three meetings will offer Spanish and American Sign Language interpretation.
