Heads Up Taxpayers! Have You Seen This > $1,670,000,000 Mesa Tentative Budge FY2016-2017

Time to do the hard work, dear readers ---- Can you follow the money - all tentative $1.67 BILLION DOLLARS?
The next fiscal year budget is buried in the agenda for Mesa City Council Session June 6, 2016 - it happened yesterday. How many members of the public attended the session or seen the councilmembers in action?
Who commented and what did they say?
How many taxpayers have even seen what the budget looks like ahead of time - or even now? For something as important as the city's budget it was placed at the end of the agenda for the regular council session. It's the last item for action to be taken: Item 10a 16-0398 - 5 pages skimpy on details and *footnotes at the page bottoms.
Why should your MesaZona blogger get angry? .... It's up to the public to take a look and understand where the money comes from and where does it go?
Big Slice of The Budget Pie: PERSONAL SERVICES [you mean "personnel" like ya know salaries, what departments get how much and what are the employees' salaries? That's a good question, huh? Confidential and private information? No - the public has a right to know ...and what about pensions, benefits and retirement? Costs have gone up 35% - did U know that from this tentative budget?
