Budget Town Halls
The City of Richmond is inviting residents to take part in a series of Budget Town Halls, providing a forum for shared community input on Fiscal Year 2027 (FY27) budget priorities and an opportunity to better understand how the City's budget is developed and executed.
The town halls, which will be held in neighborhoods and community centers across the City, will include representatives from City departments and will feature engaging, interactive sessions to walk residents through the budget process, including how revenues are allocated, how funding decisions are made, and how community input will be considered and incorporated into the proposed budget.
Can’t join us in person? Take the survey!
If you can’t attend one of the Budget Town Halls, you can still participate by taking the Budget Prioritization Survey.
What’s this survey for? A budget should reflect the needs and values of our community. This data will be shared with the Mayor and City Council during the budget process as a step toward bringing decision-making even closer to that philosophy.
