The long-term outlook for Maricopa is strong, as long as the city sticks to a plan, council members were told Tuesday.
The 10-year financial plan was presented at the city council work session, discussing city expenditures, revenues, economic outlook, population and funding for the next 10 years.
The plan is one of the strategic objectives that was adopted in the city’s strategic planning this year, providing a 10-year perspective on the financial aspect of the city’s general fund. The plan gives the chance for the city council to make budgetary decisions or corrections in the upcoming fiscal years, according to the presentation. The plan updates every year based on new knowledge, projecting the next 10 years.
