COUNCIL REPORT 21 Pages
City Council Report 
Date: May 4, 2020 
To: City Council 
Through: Michael Kennington, Chief Financial Officer 
From: Candace Cannistraro, Management and Budget Director 

Subject: 
Tentative Adoption of the Fiscal Year 2020/21 
Budget Overview of Tentative Budget 
"The City of Mesa is in an unusual budget circumstance. The current COVID-19 health crisis, the related closure of non-essential businesses, and the stay-at-home order has caused a drastic reduction in City revenues that were anticipated in the latter part of FY 2019/20. 

A decrease in available revenues is expected to continue throughout FY 2020/21. Until more is known regarding the duration of the health crisis, the full impact on the local, state, and national economies is difficult to project
