Summary
As the City’s fiscal year ends, Mayor Matt Mahan’s proposed budget addresses a $35 million shortfall while prioritizing ending unsheltered homelessness, neighborhood cleanup, community safety, economic growth, and housing development. Key District 9 priorities funded include critical traffic safety upgrades at two school-area crosswalks, park improvements, and support for youth and vulnerable populations. The newsletter supports Mayor Mahan’s Pay for Performance policy to hold elected officials accountable and updates to the Encampment Code of Conduct requiring shelter acceptance to reduce unsafe street living. The FY 2025-2026 Budget will be discussed at the June 10 City Council meeting.
