EXPLANATION:
The City of National City operates on a fiscal year calendar: July 1 through June 30. On or before June 30 of each year the
operating budget for the following fiscal year is presented to the City Council for adoption. The process of developing the
City's annual budget includes a series of events over a four to five month period including departmental budget reviews and
budgeting requests, community meetings via Neighborhood Councils and financial reviews/analysis by the Finance
Department. Another key component in the process has historically been budget workshops with the City Council as a
means of seeking both Council direction and as another means of soliciting community input.
In preparation of the budget calendar for the development and adoption of the Fiscal Year 2015 annual budget, staff has
tentatively scheduled two City Council budget workshops. Said workshops are tentatively scheduled for April 29, and May
13, 2014. Both dates are "off Tuesdays", that is to say they are Tuesdays on which there is no regular meeting of the City
Council scheduled.
With this item, staff seeks approval of these tentative budget workshop dates. In the alternative, if said dates are not
agreeable to the majority of the City Council, direction on alternative dates is sought.
