The Mayor's Budget Hearings
Meet with Each Department
In early May, the Mayor begins budget hearings with each department. In
these hearings, the departments present their plans for the coming fiscal
year and justify their budget requests in the context of the programs
and services they plan to offer the citizens. The Mayor’s Hearings
are televised on Metro 3 (the Government Access Channel) and through streaming
video on Metro’s internet site so that citizens have timely and
easy access to these important discussions.
Review the Accomplishments, Strategic Issues, and Goals
The Mayor will review each department’s accomplishments from the
previous year to ensure that each department has made progress toward
meeting their stated goals with the resources provided in their existing
budgets. Strategic issues are addressed in the context of Nashville's
Priorities and departments are provided the opportunity to discuss goals
for the next budget cycle.
Review Resource Requests
In these hearings, the Mayor and departments also review departmental
resource requests that are necessary to accomplish goals in the next budget
cycle. Departments are provided the opportunity to describe how an investment
of resources will improve programs and services offered in the community.
The Mayor uses the information from these hearings to make decisions about
which items to include in the recommended operating budget that is presented
to the Metro Council not later than May 25th of each year.
