FY2021 Budget Process
On April 27, 2020, the FY2021 budget was voted out by the Board of Estimate and Apportionment (E&A). It was sent to the Ways and Means Committee of the Board of Alderman (BOA) on May 1, 2020. Ways and Means conducted public hearings in May and June on each segment of the budget prior to taking any action. Ways and Means submitted a list of proposed changes to the Board of E&A for its consideration in June. E&A approved those changes at its meeting in June. After E&A approval, the proposed budget was reviewed and considered by the entire BOA. The BOA may reduce the amount of any item in a budget bill, except amounts fixed by statute or ordinance obligations. The BOA may not increase any appropriation amount nor insert new items unless specifically approved by the Board of E&A. After some discussion, the budget was placed on the Board's Informal Calendar on June 23, 2020. Under procedures laid out in the City's Charter, it was deemed approved effective July 1, 2020.
