Budget Survey - Fiscal Year 2014

The City of Tallahassee is developing the proposed Fiscal Year 2014 (FY14) budget to address the needs of the City's diverse communities, reflect shared priorities and move the City toward important goals. To help achieve this, the City is seeking input from citizens. Please consider taking this short online budget survey designed to help staff create a fiscally responsible and balanced budget to present to the City Commission. The survey is comprised of 14 questions that range from what City services you have used in the past six months to your thoughts on supporting a variety of services and programs. Following the budget questions, there are optional demographic questions. One survey per person/computer will be accepted through May 31.
