Background - Richmond Government Budget
As Richmond Residents, we pool our resources in order to own and
operate our local government and decide what public services we want to invest in; the priority
(investment levels) for these services; and, how we pay for them. Examples of
our services include the management, oversight and delivery of such things as
clean/safe water; streets/parks; laws; law enforcement/firefighting/rescue;
trash/sewage removal; public transportation; and, our children’s education.
Together, we own, operate, use and benefit from these services on a daily
basis.
Funding for our services and enforcement of
laws comes from state, local and federal sources, including fees and
taxes.
In order to set the investments levels we
want for these services, Richmond City Council establishes an official annual
Richmond Government Budget in May of each year for the upcoming Fiscal Year.
The Richmond
Government Budget is based on a Fiscal Year that runs July 1 to June 30
annually and the City operates on a two-year fiscal plan (Budget) that includes
the
Richmond General Fund, Richmond Capital Improvement Plan, Richmond Special
Funds, Richmond Enterprise Funds, Richmond Internal Service Funds, the City
Government contribution to Richmond Public Schools; and, additional state, federal,
and other funds provided to Richmond Public Schools.
The Richmond
Government Budget is typically amended annually. Thus, every year a proposed
(draft) Richmond Government Budget (Fiscal Plan) is submitted to Richmond City
Council by the Mayor, who is responsible for administering local government
services. Council then reviews, analyzes, amends and establishes an official
Richmond Government Budget based on the priorities of Richmond Residents.
Richmond City Council budget deliberations
begin each August and intensify the following year. They include more than two
dozen public meetings, hearings and
work sessions from August through May.
The
Richmond Government Budget takes the form of Ordinances that are approved by
Richmond City Council each May for an upcoming Fiscal Year.
Richmond City Council
Mission
The mission of Richmond City Council is to represent citizens
in creating and amending local laws, providing government policy and oversight,
and approving the city budget.
Vision
Richmond City Council is committed to creating a vibrant
community that is a great place to live, work, learn, play, visit and raise a
family.
