Residents of St. Louis Park will soon have the opportunity to weigh in on the city's financial plans for the upcoming year. The City Council is set to hold a public hearing on the proposed 2025 budget and tax levies—or the "Truth in Taxation" hearing—on December 2, 2024, at 6:30 p.m., as is mandated by the Minnesota State Statute. The session will take place at the St. Louis Park City Hall, specifically located in the Council Chambers at 5005 Minnetonka Boulevard.
The meeting is designed as a platform for public comment, with no formal decisions to be made at that time. It represents a call to the community for involvement and transparency in the budgetary process. Public inputs can be delivered in person, and for those who prefer or need to communicate electronically, comments are to be emailed to [email protected] by noon on the day of the hearing. These submissions will then be presented to the city council during the meeting and included in the official record.
For individuals with disabilities, auxiliary aids are available to ensure equitable access to this important community forum. Requests for such services should be made in advance of the meeting by contacting the city at 952.924.2505, an embodiment of St. Louis Park's dedication to inclusivity.
