Budget Committee

Overview

The Budget Committee is governed by Local Budget Law (ORS 294.336-341) and consists of 14 members: seven members of the Sherwood City Council and an equal number of qualified electors of the City.  Citizen members are appointed by the Mayor with the consent of the City Council to three year terms. All members must reside within the Sherwood City limits.

The Budget Committee reviews the City’s proposed budget annually as presented by the City Manager. The Committee acts as the fiscal planning board for the City by reviewing, revising and approving the proposed City budget as presented by the Budget Officer.

The Budget Committee generally meets 3-4 times annually or may meet as many times as needed to revise and complete the proposed budget. At least one meeting must provide the public with the opportunity for questions and comments from any interested person. The meetings are held at City Hall, 22560 SW Pine Street, Sherwood, Oregon.
