As the City plans to meet the dreams of our community, we need
a long-term financial plan to pay for the things the community wants and needs.
Why do we need a long-term financial road map?
Our goal is to deliver exceptional services that support a
high quality of life for our community.
But we’re at a critical turning point in Gresham. Limited by
property taxes and fees that haven’t been raised in years, the City’s budget
struggles to keep up – let alone fund big dreams.
A financial road map will support the City in becoming
financially stable for many years to come.
Two plans, one goal
The City’s strategic plan and financial road map will work
together to chart the course for securing the resources to fulfill the
community’s needs.
Many options are being explored, from fees to bonds to
districts.
The City Council is set to adopt both plans on Aug. 16.
