Office of Management & Budget

About OMB

Goal 6.6 of the City's Strategic Plan: Ensure continued financial stability and accountability through sound financial management, budgeting, and reporting.

OMB continually analyzes the revenues, appropriations, expenses, and encumbrances of all departments to develop clear financial reporting mechanisms for the status of resources. Resources are used as management tools for city officials in the City’s ongoing effort to provide the public with effective, efficient, and responsive municipal services.

The OMB staff develops the City’s annual operating, debt service, and capital acquisition budgets within legal and prudent fiscal management requirements. They monitor expenditures throughout the fiscal year to ensure that all City departments remain within budget allocations and prepare monthly financial reports of the City’s comprehensive budgetary status.

The department also administers the compilation of the citizen survey which is conducted approximately every two years and is used to provide input to the Mayor, Council, and Senior Management in directing resources and providing feedback regarding the delivery of city services.
