Preparation of the Fiscal Year 2017-2018 Budget

The City of West Covina's budget is a collaborative effort between the City Council, City Manager/City Staff, and the Citizens of West Covina. The budget incorporates multiple funds for specific uses.

Many of the services provided to West Covina residents are financed through the General Fund. This fund will be a primary focus of the budget workshops and is used to support many of the services residents rely upon most, including police and fire services, maintenance of city streets, parks, and other infrastructure. The majority of General Fund revenues come from local sales tax and state-shared revenues, with smaller amounts from fees and charges for services.

Public Meetings, Public Input, and Information Regarding the Fiscal Year 2017-2018 Budget

As part of the budget development process, the City of West Covina will be holding two Community Budget Workshops to receive input from the public about the upcoming 2017-2018 budget development.  Additionally, an online survey was made available for residents and business owners to provide feedback to the City Council regarding budget priorities for the upcoming year. (Survey was open through Tuesday, April 18, 2017.) The results of the survey were shared with the City Council and the public at each of the budget workshops. Paper copies of the survey were also available at the following locations for those that did not have online access: the West Covina Senior Center, Cameron Community Center, West Covina Maintenance Yard, the West Covina City Clerk's Office and the Finance Department Office located at City Hall.
