City Financial Voices

The purpose of this blog is to allow individuals, mainly those outside the official city government to comment on the financial success of the city’s financial decisions. Thus the name –City Financial Voices. Ideal comments are based on quantitative data from the city’s financial report, called the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report or CAFR. Data from the CAFR can be combined with knowledge about the city, data on economic conditions and observations on how the city generates revenue, spends and raises debt. Vindicate or personal attaches are not welcome and will be removed.
