Every two years the City hosts a community-based goal setting process to establish the top priorities to make San Luis Obispo an even better place to live, work, and play. Through its budget process, the City Council then matches the resources necessary to achieve these priorities and integrate them into its two-year financial plan. The adopted budget then enables the City to provide high quality services, programs, and projects with the community’s priorities in mind.
With the social and economic impacts of COVID-19 on our community, your input on priorities for the 2021-23 Financial Plan are more important than ever.
In response to these impacts, the Council, in June 2020, adopted a goal focused on San Luis Obispo’s economic stability, recovery, and resiliency.
The City is seeking your input on the most important, highest priorities you want the City to accomplish in the next two years and this survey is the first step! To learn more about recent Financial Plan presentations to the City Council, click here.
