We are grateful to be recognized as an Honorable Mention in this year's GFOA Fiscal Fluency Challenge for our 2024 Budget Board. This recognition highlights Shakopee's work to make city finances more transparent. View the 2024 Budget Board at www.ShakopeeMN.gov/budget.
GFOA's Fiscal Fluency Challenge sought creative ways to explain budgeting numbers to others. After numerous entries, the City of Arlington, Texas, was selected as the winner! Arlington created videos to make public finance easy to understand. They used themes like “Build, Unite, Create,” comparing budgeting to a Lego set, and “Budget Bites,” which was styled like a cooking show. Arlington’s approach serves as a model for other cities looking to improve their budget communications. View the winning entry and honorable mentions at https://lnkd.in/gY8Qf-G3. Congratulations Arlington! #GFOA #localgov #creativity #budgeting #explainervideos
