Once
the Mayor’s Hearings are complete, the Mayor considers the
budget requests for the departments and agencies. Given revenue
projections for the coming fiscal year and the priorities of the
Nashville community, the Mayor prioritizes the budget requests,
selecting those requests to be included in his recommended budget.
The
Office of Management and Budget takes the Mayor’s recommended
budget and creates two important documents. The first, the recommended
budget ordinance, is the legislation that Council considers that
contains Metro Government’s operational budget for the coming
fiscal year. The second is the recommended budget book, which provides
financial and performance information on each department and agency,
including any modifications proposed for the coming fiscal year.
The
Metro charter requires that the budget ordinance be filed with the
Council by May 25 of each year. At that point, the Mayor’s
recommended budget goes to the Metro Council for its review and
consideration.
