Los Angeles City Budget Challenge!

STNC's Budget Advocate Ed Novy says -- Its here, its here! Mayor Antonio R. Villaraigosa invites you to take the Los Angeles Budget Challenge. Developed with input from the City's Neighborhood Council Budget Advocates, the survey gives you the opportunity to share your priorities for balancing the City's budget. For the next fiscal year, the City of Los Angeles projects a $216 million budget gap. Over the coming months, Mayor Villaraigosa will review opportunities to build upon recent efforts to improve the City's fiscal sustainability. Your participation will assist Mayor Villaraigosa as he prepares the Fiscal Year 2013-14 Budget, which will be released in April 2013.
