Welcome to my city budget page!

During the 2005 campaign, I talked about the need for a more open budget process.  I also called for more opportunities
for citizen input and involvement.  That is why for the second year I have created this page to help the citizens of Oshkosh
learn more about the city's budget, the process and timeline and allow for direct feedback about priorities, suggestions, etc.

Please submit any feedback or suggestions below or contact me directly via
email or phone at 651-9329.  Thank you!
