Buckeye Residents Invited to Weigh In on Fiscal Year 2024/25 Budget Through June 3Source: City of Buckeye

Buckeye residents, it's time to speak up about your city's cash flow. The town is inviting locals to dive into the Fiscal Year 2024/25 budget process, through an online video and comment form, where you can toss in your two cents.

The digital platform, which can be accessed on the city's website until June 3, gives the citizens a chance to have their voices heard on financial planning and services provided by the municipality. Even in these times of financial uncertainty, Buckeye claims to be looking ahead with a "strong financial outlook," focusing on "solid, long-term financial planning."

In a move to ensure transparency, the Buckeye City Council put the thumbs up on a tentative budget on May 21. They're now gearing up for a final vote, set for June 4 at 6 p.m., where they'll lay down the law on the city’s financial blueprint for the upcoming year.

For those with a yen for more than just a cursory glance, the city has a whole section on its Finance pages where you can geek out on the nitty gritty of Buckeye's bucks. From reading between the lines of allocation charts to decoding dollars and cents, it's all there for the taking.

Residents looking to weigh in on how their tax dollars are spent, or those just curious about the city's money management, don't need to look further. All you need is an internet connection, a device to watch the video, and a moment to share your thoughts before the clock runs out on June 3.
