Santa Barbara's City Council will conduct its final budget deliberation on Wednesday, June 8.

In a press release, the city says its proposed Fiscal Year 2023 budget includes a $156 million General Fund and more than $300 million in capital projects in process.

The city says this will contribute to improved roads, infrastructure and activities for residents and businesses.

The Santa Barbara City Council heard from departments about their budget and workloads over a series of seven budget meetings.
