You’ve been hearing a lot about the city of San Diego’s budget problems for a while now, we all have.
So, if you live in the city of San Diego and you care about it, as you should, what do you do about it.
On Thursday, a news release went out from City Hall that as of that day, what they call a digital Resident Budget Survey was beginning.
The news release says Mayor Todd Gloria says he wants San Diegans to provide feedback that will help determine which programs and services are prioritized and which are reduced.
It went on to say that that the Resident Budget Survey, in English and Spanish.
And the news release said that there are other ways that San Diegans can get involved in the budget development process.
Residents are encouraged to attend City Council budget meetings and to provide public comment, either by attending in person or via Zoom.
Specifically reminding residents that the next City Council meeting to discuss the budget is Tuesday…. when the mayor and the city council are expected to get an earful from the public.
With polls showing people’s low trust in all levels of government it’s going to be interesting to see what city residents say and how city council members will react.
