The City of Mission Viejo’s budget is balanced and fiscally robust with strong discretionary reserves – despite the pandemic – thanks to proactive budget-reducing measures and the use of American Rescue Plan resources that allowed the City to continue providing top-notch services to the community.
The City Council on June 22 will consider the FY 2021-23 budget, a $172.8 million bundle of services, programs and projects for the benefit of Mission Viejo residents and businesses. The proposed budget provides for essential service levels and programs and $17.5 million in funding for capital improvements.
Public safety remains the City’s top priority with 30% of the budget dedicated to these services. Infrastructure maintenance comprises $41.6 million of the budget and includes all park, median, slope and facility maintenance.
See the full budget report at this link. The public is invited to attend the meeting to provide input.
The City Council meets at 6 pm in the Council Chamber at 200 Civic Center.
