Lincoln Budget Survey

On Saturday, May 16, the University of Nebraska Public Policy Center partnered with the Office of Mayor Chris Beutler to host an in-depth discussion about the City of Lincoln’s coming 2009-10 budget. At the event, 111 residents gathered to discuss programs and services that may possibly be eliminated or reduced in the budget currently being finalized. The discussion was preceded by the Taking Charge survey administered earlier. The final report in PDF format is available here.

Funding for the project was provided by a grant through the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.
