The following is a release:
The City of Maple Valley is implementing priority-based budgeting, a method of allocating city resources according to the priorities of the community.
The city will be hosting the first of several meetings that will give the public an overview of what we do and opportunity to weigh in on their priorities and how they value one service or program as compared to another.
The first meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 22, 2016 on the main floor of the Lake Wilderness Lodge –22500 SE 248th Street, Maple Valley and will be focused on Public Works.
The Public Works Department will present its services and programs and will be prepared to discuss which ones are mandatory versus discretionary. Attendees will have an opportunity to rank services and programs according to their priorities.
We welcome and encourage you to attend. Please help us by sharing this information with community members and friends. Light refreshments will be served. Please visit our website for more information about Priority Based Budgeting and the other community meeting dates:
