✅ Budget Challenges

In early 2023, the City of Benicia announced a structural budget deficit of $6.5-$9 million. To provide the highest level of transparency and information to the public, the City started an information campaign on the budget challenges ahead. This process led to the implementation of the Resiliency Plan.
