City officials launch community survey as city faces projected budget shortfall and sets spending priorities.
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — The City of Corpus Christi is seeking public input as officials begin developing the Fiscal Year 2027 budget through a new community-wide survey.
City officials said the survey will help them understand which services residents believe should be prioritized as the city prepares for a projected budget shortfall, in which expected service costs exceed available revenue.
The survey asks residents to rank several city services, including public safety, neighborhood code enforcement, garbage and recycling, parks, libraries, pools, recreation centers, senior centers, street maintenance and economic development.
Officials said public participation is important as the city works to build a balanced, responsible budget for the upcoming fiscal year.
The survey is available in both English and Spanish and is designed to be quick and easy for residents to complete. To take the survey, click here.
