The City of Austin is facing a $33 million budget deficit, even as it moves forward with multi-million and billion-dollar projects like the I-35's caps and stitches and the Austin airport expansion. If you're scratching your head wondering how that math adds up, you're not alone. Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by City Budget Officer Kerri Lang to get an inside look on how the city's budget really comes together. They dig into where the money comes from, what city bonds actually do, and how Lang's team works overtime to build the budget that will go up for a vote in August. Plus, how you can weigh in on where those dollars go. Learn more about the sponsors of this June 2nd episode:
