Mayor Domenic J. Sarno and Chief Administrative and Financial Officer (CAFO) Timothy J. Plante have released the schedule for the Mayor’s Fiscal Year 2018 (FY18) budget hearings. City Department Heads will present their FY18 budget requests and respond to questions from Mayor Sarno and the Office of Management and Budget.
Mayor Sarno states, “Governing during the worst economic times since the Great Depression, I am very proud of our fiscal management. We have reaffirmed the highest bond ratings in our City’s history and have healthy reserves. We will continue to lead in an efficient, effective, strategic and compassionate way.”
T.J. Plante stated, “As we kick off our FY18 budget process, our goal is to maintain core services with an eye on fiscal sustainability. I look forward to working with the Mayor and department heads to craft a thoughtful budget that lives within our means and doesn’t mortgage the future.”
The majority of the budget hearings will be held at Springfield City Hall in Room 310. Fire and Police Department hearings will be held at the Municipal Operations Center located at 70 Tapley Street. The hearings are open to all Springfield City Councilors as well as to the public.
