Information
Information from the City of Portland about Budget Advisory Committees and how the City Budget is created.
Budget Advisory Committees
Bureau budget advisory committees (BAC) are continuous working bodies that foster and utilize a high level of understanding about a given bureau’s programs and services and then actively discuss and advise bureau budget decisions. Given this critical and intensive interface between policy-makers and the public, participation by community members in bureau budget advisory committees is one of the most effective venues for residents to provide input throughout the budget process.
