The Approach: A Priority Driven Budget • Engage with the public and solicit their input about

community priorities

• Challenge Agency Directors to Fund Priorities First, like:

– Job Training, Affordable Housing and Education

• Target underspending, vacancies, and program inefficiencies, not across-the-board cuts

• Maintain and invest in the District’s workforce

• Preserve middle class tax reductions
