  • phoenix - community budget guide

    Phoenix, AZ
    Budget

    The Phoenix Community Budget Guide outlines the city's fiscal structure and challenges. Phoenix's 2025-26 General Fund faced a baseline deficit of $36 million, with projected shortfalls of $83 million in 2026-27 and $6 million in 2027-28, primarily caused by state legislative actions eliminating residential rental sales tax (SB 1131) and reducing the individual income tax rate to 2.5 percent (SB 1828). On March 18, 2025, the City Council approved budget balancing strategies including an increase to the Transaction Privilege Tax and Use Tax rate from 2.3 percent to 2.8 percent, effective July 1, 2025, resulting in a projected one-time General Fund surplus of $17 million for 2025-26. The document describes the city's budget structure, revenue sources, operating costs for public safety and community services, and the budget process including a planned City Council adoption in June 2026 with community input opportunities at phoenix.gov/budget.

  • Mayor's Budget Message

    York, PA
    Budget

    The City of York submitted its proposed $104 million budget for 2017, which includes a General Fund of over $45 million and a 2% property tax reduction while remaining on track for a 15% reduction over five years. To balance the budget amid rising healthcare and pension costs, the city froze or eliminated vacant positions and held department budgets firm, while also implementing a 10% sewer fee increase and 3.9% refuse fee increase due to infrastructure maintenance and contract costs. Mayor C. Kim Bracey emphasized the structural financial challenges facing Third Class Cities in Pennsylvania and called on state legislators to address the inadequate revenue system that forces municipalities to over-rely on property taxes.
