Join the Davis Vanguard and Davis Neighborhood Coalition for a Town Hall meeting on Davis’s impending budget crisis.
The meeting will take place TONIGHT, May 20, from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Veteran’s Memorial Center Multipurpose Room, 203 E. 14th Street in Davis.
The meeting features a panel of speakers consisting of City of Davis Finance Director, Paul Navazio; City of Davis Budget and Financing Commission chair, Johannes Troost; and CSUS Professor of Economics and Department Chair, Mark Seigler.
The panel will answer questions submitted by the Coalition and the Vanguard and also take questions from the floor. The discussion will include City budget issues from both short- and long-term perspectives, including issues of employee compensation, retirement pensions, unmet needs, and unfunded liabilities.
The public is not yet engaged in the budget issues that City is facing. The Town Hall meeting will afford an opportunity for the community to become familiar with the problems we face and to offer input into how to solve those problems.
The Town Hall meeting is sponsored by the Davis Vanguard, Davis Neighborhood Coalition and Davis Media Access. For more information, contact David Greenwald at info@davisvanguard.org or visit davisvanguard.org.
We’re glad to see the Vanguard is hosting this Town Hall Meeting. We plan to be there.
