The Office of Budget and Strategic Planning balances community
needs with available resources through the coordination and development
of the City's operating and capital budgets. It also maintains
corporate financial control throughout the year and provides professional
management and research assistance on issues related to financial
management, productivity, and the effective and efficient use of
City resources.
The City of Hopewell welcomes your participation in the annual
budget process and your input in the development of the annual
budget. The process is structured to allow and encourage residents
to voice their opinions about the services the City should provide
to its citizens. Budget planning for the fiscal year will begin
in December of each year. There are generally City Budget work
sessions in April and May. The City Manager, as required by the
City Charter, must present a budget to City Council 60 days before
the end of the fiscal year. In April and May, City Council reviews
and considers the proposed budget. Hearings are also held in April
and May to solicit public input. Council must adopt the next year's
budget before the last day of June each year. Again, the City welcomes
your input in the development of the Annual Budget. If you have
any questions concerning the budget process or on the budget in
general, please contact the Finance Director at (804) 541-2306
during regular business hours.
