Interactive Budget Balancing Tool
Simulations have the power to put the public in the position of the City and asks what they would do with the City’s real-world constraints and the competing demands for scarce resources. When it comes to local government, residents want services provided efficiently and effectively, and, when they take the time to communicate with staff or elected officials, they want to know that someone is listening. Two-way communication with residents is essential so that when tough challenges arise there will be greater capacity for constructive dialogue. Interactive simulations provide an easy way to get informed input on priorities and stimulate creative ideas to improve programs.
