This spring, Mayor Kenney will propose a budget to City Council for the coming fiscal year, which starts on July 1, 2022. Before the City drafts that proposal, we want to hear from Philadelphians about their priorities and preferences for how the City spends money on services like trash collection, anti-violence, public health, and more.
Join an upcoming virtual meeting to learn more about the City Budget and to share what you think the budget should include.
