About these numbers
Payments can reflect sales from two or more months earlier, reporting adjustments and tax-rate changes. Increases are not necessarily economic growth. Comparisons use the same period last year, not the previous month. Calendar-year totals are separate from the city’s fiscal-year budget. Amounts are rounded to whole dollars. Percentages are unavailable when the prior amount is zero or negative, or either amount is missing.

All city funds
Matching spending totals excluding transfers are not available.
Both years exclude interfund transfers. General Fund spending is already included in all city funds; do not add them together. Changes are not inflation-adjusted. Bars are scaled within each card.
From revenue to surplus or deficit
General Fund · FY 2025–26 · After transfers
Start with revenue. Add transfers and other financing coming in, then subtract spending and financing outflows. The final bar is what remains, not another source of money.
A deficit means planned outflows exceed inflows. It may be funded from existing reserves; it does not by itself establish a cash shortage. Beginning fund balance is excluded. This is the General Fund only, not the whole city.
