✅CITY OF FRESNO FY27 BUDGET
Today, the Fresno City Council approved a record $2.55 billion budget.
Despite rising costs from inflation and the expiration of federal funding, the City has adopted a balanced budget with no layoffs or reductions to City services.
The FY27 budget, being my final one as the District 3 Councilmember, reflects our strong commitment to enhancing the well-being of our Fresno community. We are committed to making meaningful investments in essential areas such as parks, infrastructure, local organizations, housing, homeless initiatives, and public safety.
I want to thank all the residents for the thoughtful discussions and hearings. This wouldn't have been possible without your input.
