This year�s budget theme, �Providing Quality Services,� reflects our commitment to our residents. From our police and fire to the 165 parks throughout our neighborhoods, our city is all about quality. It�s about building quality for the future - a new Tampa Museum of Art, a new Curtis Hixon Park, a new 40th Street, a new recreation center in New Tampa and new stormwater projects that will stop flooding in neighborhoods.

This year�s budget theme is �Commitment to Progress.� Despite shrinking property tax revenue and a sluggish economy, we believe that the city should aggressively repair, maintain and improve its infrastructure. It is also important to maintain high levels of public safety and basic core services that the public depends upon.

Tampa, like the rest of our nation, is facing tough economic challenges. During this recession it is important that we work to find sensible solutions to our financial issues in order to protect the quality of the services we provide our residents.
