Dubuque City Council Special Meeting
The City Council conducted a work session to review the inaugural Strategic Budgeting Leadership Academy.

Departments focused on identifying services, clarifying service delivery, assessing priorities, and connecting budget requests to city goals. The session also covered the importance of cross-departmental collaboration, distinguishing facts from assumptions, and using plain language to explain services to the public and council. The meeting concluded with a look ahead at future budget cycles and the lessons learned from this new academy model.
