City of Concord Budget
Budget Challenges
Concord is faced with the toughest budget challenge in the City's history. After conducting five "Living Within Our Means" Community Priorities Workshops and both phone and online surveys, the City Council is in the process of passing the Fiscal Year 2010-11 City Budget and Ten Year Financial Plan. A balanced budget must be passed by June 30, 2010. The City's fiscal year begins July 1, 2010 and runs through June 30, 2011.
The final budget documents will be posted here as soon as they are finalized. Below are some of the presentations and reports presented at the workshops leading up to the passage of the budget.

Explaining the Adopted Budget
The City of Concord budget has several sections. The General Fund is the section of the budget that is most often discussed and is generally of most interest to residents. Concord’s General Fund budget is just under $75 million annually. Funds to pay for police services, parks and recreation, street and road maintenance, and all of the other day to day workings of the City are paid for from the General Fund.
