AUSTIN (KXAN) — On Wednesday’s episode of Inside Austin’s Agenda, host Grace Reader will sit down with the man who serves as the effective CEO of the city of Austin.
City Manager TC Broadnax will be on the show to talk about his first year in the city’s top role and Austin’s looming budget process.
City staff have already warned city council members that Austin is facing a multitude of fiscal challenges including running out of pandemic relief funding (American Rescue Plan Act dollars), addressing federal cuts and seeing a decline in sales tax revenue which the city leans on more heavily now that the state has put a cap on property tax.
Broadnax is expected to release his official budget proposal next month. Austin City Council will make adjustments and approve the final budget before the fiscal year begins on Oct. 1.
Inside Austin’s Agenda is live every other Wednesday at 3 p.m. Watch every episode at the top of this article, on Facebook, and our KXAN+ streaming app. You can find previous episodes here.
