City of Austin Town Hall Meeting on Budget Cuts - Wednesday, June 10 - Northwest Recreation Center

Submitted by Suzanne Bonniwell on Wed, 06/03/2009 - 7:53pm
Event Time: 
06/10/2009 6:00pm - 8:30pm

A schedule has been finalized for Town Hall meetings on the new proposed budget reductions. For your planning purposes, the schedule will be:

Wednesday, June 10 - Northwest Recreation Center
Monday, June 15 - Gus Garcia Recreation Center
Tuesday, June 16 - Tony Burger Activity Center

All meetings will take place from 6-8:30 p.m. The plan is to have a two-part presentation. The first part will be a condensed version of Budget's forecast, focusing on the key pressures on our budget, and the second part will be an interactive exercise that engages the residents in setting service level priorities.

PLEASE try to attend one or all of these meetings as the City needs to hear from many of us that additional cuts of APD's budget is a terrible idea as all crimes are up across the city - even in several of the historically calmer parts of town. PLEASE forward this note to anyone who is tired of the escalation of crime in our city.
