2025 Budget Engagement!
There are several ways to participate and get your feedback to the City as we develop the FY2025 budget. Participate in as many as you can, and encourage your friends and neighbors to join, too.
Phase 1: Budget Development Input (May- August 7)
The activities and events listed below provide opportunities for residents to provide feedback that the City will share with City Council and use to develop the FY2025 Recommended Budget.
- Council priorities
What are your top 3? Let us know on BalancingAct.
What should be in the budget?
Submit a thought & rate the thoughts of others on ThoughtExchange.
- Map Your Likes & Needs

Phase 2: Feedback on the Recommended Budget (Mid-August to Mid-September)
After the Recommended Budget is presented to City Council, community members will be provided with opportunities to review and submit feedback. Information on Phase 2 opportunities will be provided closer to the August timeframe.
Map it! Tell us about your likes and needs.
Use this map to let us know where things are that you...
- LOVE about Fort Worth! For example, put a pin where there's a playground that you really love and would like to see more of in the City.
- NEED in Fort Worth! For example, put a pin in a place where you think traffic is unsafe or a location that could use a grocery store.
Make sure to add a description so that we understand what you LOVE or NEED. You can also upload a picture to show us exactly what you mean.
