City of Victorville leaders will host a virtual community meeting to present a comprehensive overview of the current fiscal year budget and outline a roadmap for future financial decisions.
The public meeting is scheduled at 6 p.m. on April 1 and can be viewed by clicking the ZOOM link.
“This virtual meeting is one of several opportunities for residents to learn more about the City’s finances and engage in the process,” Victorville City Manager Keith Metzler said. “We want to hear from our community, and we’re bringing the conversation directly to them.”
During the session, residents will receive a detailed breakdown of the city’s revenue sources from Finance Director Carmen Cun. The meeting will include updates on major infrastructure and community development projects underway this fiscal year, the city stated.
Following the presentation, Metzler will lead an interactive Q&A session via the Zoom link, allowing for direct dialogue between city leadership and residents.
City officials said as Victorville continues to grow, resident feedback remains a key component of the city’s long-term planning efforts.
“The financial decisions we make today have lasting impacts on our residents for generations,” Cun said. “These tools are part of our effort to help residents better understand where their tax dollars come from and how they are used.”
How to view the meeting
Meeting viewership is encouraged, with the event available via the ZOOM link.
An on-demand recording of the meeting will also be made available on the city’s website following the event for those unable to attend live, the city said.
