Chamber seeks feedback on City budget

As you know, our City is facing a $73 million budget shortfall for 2011 and City Manager Dale Fisseler has asked for community input regarding both short- and long-term solutions.

News articles in the Business Press and the Star-Telegram provide good background. Also, the City website has a thorough presentation here.

We would like your opinions on specific actions and solutions you would support for the 2011 budget. The Chamber will present this collective feedback from our membership to the Mayor and City Manager.

We also invite you to attend public hearings on Aug. 17, Aug. 24 and Sept. 7.

Please take a few minutes to answer several questions at this link:

A separate questionnaire will be sent in several weeks specifically regarding modifications to the City’s pension, benefit and retirement plans and how that impacts the budget.

Your participation is vital to the Chamber’s advocacy efforts on behalf of local business.  Thank you.
