2027 Strategic Priorities
Net Zero Budget Simulation:Structural Deficit Correction
Adopt a net-zero structural deficit budget for General Fund. External funds are subject to customized
directives.
Capital Infrastructure: Capital Facilities Working Group
Leverage the working group to identify feasible, suitable, actionable solutions for critical
infrastructure needs and align resourcing budgets with this initiative.
Drive Operational Efficiency: Maximize Technology
Enhance efficiency through technology and resource consolidation to maximize the return on
personnel investments.
Maximize Dedicated Reserves: Address Current Pressures, Share Burden
Strategic use of reserves gives us flexibility to respond to immediate challenges while
spreading the financial impact. Targeted deployment helps maintain stability and supports key
transitions without overburdening annual budgets.

Current Cash and Investment Levels
The information above is intended to provide a quick snapshot of each fund’s current
cash and investment position relative to its upcoming budgetary commitments.
This is not a comprehensive fund balance analysis, which requires additional time and
the integration of multiple data sources. Rather, this is intended as a high-level starting
point to generate questions and identify areas that may warrant further review.
The information should not be used as a basis for decision-making, as it represents an
incomplete picture of overall fund activity mainly receivables, liabilities, and other fund
balance considerations.
