WASHINGTON, D.C. – January 31, 2013 – (RealEstateRama) — Help us build a budget that will enhance economic vitality, workforce development and lifelong learning. By focusing on these priorities over the next year, we hope to propel our city forward economically.
Through our conversations, we hope to hear your solutions to improving property values which will help our city grow. We also want to hear solutions for diversifying our economy so that we are less dependent on real estate revenue. We want to bring more jobs to the city and make sure that we have workers that live in the city who are ready to fill those jobs. We want your help in focusing on lifelong learning opportunities that will provide our residents with the necessary skills to support a prosperous economy.
Now is your opportunity to take the first step towards improving your community for next year and beyond. Be part of Norfolk’s well-managed government. Be part of the fiscal year 2014 budget building process as we work together towards a bright future in our city by the sea.
Here are the ways you can get involved:

Thursday, February 21, 6:30-8:00PM at the Mary D. Pretlow Anchor Branch Library 111 W. Ocean View Avenue
