    Tucson, AZ
    Budget

    For Fiscal Year 2025, the Tucson City Manager submitted the recommended budget on April 9, 2024, and the Mayor and Council adopted a balanced budget on June 4, 2024. The city's largest revenue sources are Business Privilege tax (19.6% of total revenues) and Public Utility tax (17.4%), with Business Privilege tax recently increased from 2% to 2.6% following voter-approved propositions, and a multi-year rate plan for Public Utility tax approved in January 2023 providing annual 5.5% increases through Fiscal Year 2027. Arizona's 2022 implementation of a flat income tax rate has significantly reduced state-shared revenues to Tucson, creating budgetary pressure on the General Fund and prompting the city to propose fee adjustments for Parks and Recreation, Reid Park Zoo, Tucson City Golf, and other services beginning in Fiscal Year 2025.

    On July 13, 1998, the City of Charlotte City Council held a meeting in Room 267 with a workshop agenda covering several items including a General Obligation Bond Referendum for Storm Water. The council discussed the 1997 resolution to transition the Storm Water program to a true Enterprise fund, phasing out the city's property tax contribution and using revenue bonds as a funding source for capital investment. A key issue involved state law constraints on storm water fee authorization when two government entities provide services through an interlocal agreement with Mecklenburg County, which created uncertainty for bond buyers regarding revenue guarantees, prompting the council to consider legislation authorizing the city to levy adequate storm water fees to service revenue bonds.
