Let the budgeting begin
Wednesday, July 31, 2019 by Elizabeth Pagano
Council will make the end of its summer break official Monday, by jumping directly into the city budget process. On Aug. 5, City Manager Spencer Cronk will present the proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2019-20 at 2 p.m. at LifeWorks’ Sooch Foundation Youth and Family Resource Center, 835 N. Pleasant Valley Road in East Austin. Those not lucky enough to catch the presentation in person can also follow along on ATXN (or catch up via the Austin Monitor‘s coverage, of course). City Council will continue discussing the budget at Aug. 20, Aug. 29 and Sept. 4. work sessions, with a final budget adoption scheduled for Sept. 10.
