According to a statement released on March 18, 2024, community members are encouraged to participate in town hall meetings and provide their input through a budget engagement survey.

In a call to action, the Mayor and Council, along with City staff, expressed their eagerness for public involvement, stating, "Mayor and Council and City staff welcome you to be a part of the process by joining in one of the town hall meetings and filling out the budget engagement survey."

In addition to the virtual budget meeting scheduled for Tuesday, March 26, from 6:30-7:30 p.m., in-person meetings have been arranged for further public engagement. Residents can attend sessions on Wednesday, April 3, from 6-7 p.m., at El Rio Center, located at 1390 W. Speedway Blvd, and on Thursday, April 4, from 6-7 p.m., at the Ward 2 Office, situated at 7820 E. Broadway Blvd.
