Colorado Springs 2022 Budget Discussion 3

Council Matters Archives - Studio 809 Podcasts

Councilman Bill Murray is trying to tell us something here?

Is there really long range planning for the budget? Are the forecast assumptions real? Is a 5% sales tax growth rate real? What about inflation? Is enough being allowed for operating expenditures and capital outlays? What’s that $1.7B needed? Should this area be more robust? Allowing for a 1.0% increase? Isn’t this getting into Smoke & Mirrors territory?
What are the risks to Colorado Springs? What are the opportunities for Colorado Springs? Should the city be bonding like other communities to get projects completed in a timely manner? There’s a Colorado Springs Utilities increase coming your way. Can CSU help it?
