Fort Worth City Manager Jay Chapa is set to present the recommended Fiscal Year 2027 budget. This presentation will provide the first detailed look at how the city plans to address its financial shortfall. The city is facing a budget deficit, which has grown substantially after updated property tax rolls were released.

The deficit has increased to roughly $77 million, up from an estimated $49 million in June. This change is due to lower than projected property tax rolls. Further details on the budget proposal and how the city plans to maintain services for its residents are expected to be revealed in the presentation.

More information on the budget and the city's plan to address the shortfall is available from the city's budget information and the presentation by City Manager Jay Chapa.
