Transparency is a fundamental principle of effective and democratic governance. When citizens cannot see how their tax contributions are utilized, it weakens oversight, reduces trust, and limits meaningful participation in decision-making processes. By making the entire budgeting system open and accessible to everyone, the city can demonstrate its commitment to accountability and responsible financial management. This reform would encourage public engagement, allow residents to identify inefficiencies, and help local authorities implement more equitable and impactful spending strategies.

We urge the city to adopt a fully transparent budgeting model that includes open access to categorized spending reports, detailed explanations of expenses, ongoing project updates, and financial forecasting, all presented in a publicly accessible portal.
