A budget may be full of dollars and cents, but at its core it is really about priorities. For the budget to truly reflect our shared vision for the future, I’m relying on you to share your thoughts, encourage your friends and neighbors to participate, and show that when we engage in local government, we all do better.
With sincere gratitude,
