Budget

City of Charlotte issued the following announcement on Jan. 26.

The City of Charlotte will host a budget virtual listening session on Thursday, Feb. 3, from 12:30 p.m. to 1 p.m. to receive input from Charlotte residents concerning fiscal year 2023 budget priorities.

This event will be the first of three sessions that will continue through March 1. During these sessions, residents will be able to engage with staff, learn about the city's budget process and provide real-time feedback on the city's budget priorities. Interested residents who would like to speak directly to city staff during the sessions must complete the listening session sign-up form or contact the City of Charlotte Strategy & Budget Department at strategyandbudget@charlottenc.gov.

Listening sessions will be held on the following dates and times:

  • Thursday, Feb. 3, 12:30-1:30 p.m.
  • Wednesday, Feb. 16, 6-7 p.m.
  • Tuesday, March 1, 6-7 p.m.
The sessions will be streamed on the city's Facebook and YouTube pages, as well as the GOV Channel.

Residents also have the opportunity to rank their priorities and share their thoughts by completing the FY 2023 Budget Survey, which is also available in Spanish and using the Balancing Act simulator. Balancing Act is a tool that allows residents to test their budgeting skills and balance the more than $2 billion budget.
