City of Phoenix 2026 Community Budget Hearings

The City of Phoenix invites all residents to participate in the 2026 Community Budget Hearings, held from March 30 through April 16, at locations across the city. These hearings are your opportunity to learn about the proposed budget, ask questions, and share what matters most for your neighborhood.

The City uses your feedback to help shape final budget decisions, including investments in public safety, housing, parks, libraries, streets, and the services your family relies on every day.

Everyone is welcome. Spanish‑language and bilingual options are available, and all meetings are open to the public.

Why Your Voice Matters

• Budget decisions impact every Phoenix resident
• Input gathered at these hearings directly informs the City’s final budget
• Participation from Spanish‑speaking and multicultural communities is essential to ensure equitable representation
• You can join in person or submit feedback anytime at Phoenix.gov/Budget
