**Priority-Based Budget Implementation**

The city is implementing priority-based budgeting this year and our local elected officials are seeking community feedback. Constituents can offer their input by emailing their council members or by calling during public comment in upcoming city council and [Budget Engagement Commission](https://www.riversideca.gov/cityclerk/boards-commissions/budget-engagement-commission?ref=raincrossgazette.com) meetings. Yesterday’s city council special meeting featured a [Budget Workshop](https://riversideca.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=9295216&GUID=C0649D93-695B-4E27-BFA3-C67B98D6022A&ref=raincrossgazette.com), which covered the city’s budget development process, general fund baseline budget and priority-based budgeting.
