Challenges and Opportunities  In 2022, the Auditor’s Office highlighted the City’s disjointed and decentralized revenue collection. Work on addressing the audit findings has been on hold pending the organizational changes tied to the charter transition.  The charter transition added new teams, bureaus and service areas requiring budget, finance, and employee support. Business Operations has an opportunity to leverage centralized service provision experience for the new 12-member council, each of whom have a budget and resources to monitor. The City Administrator organization also includes several new organizations and realigned bureaus that will be managed as one organizational budget submission. Responsibility for the mayor’s budget, City Operations Service Area budgets and the Budget & Finance Service Area budget submission create a new dynamic in centralized service provision.  Global economic conditions put pressure on both interest earnings potential and costs of borrowing. The Treasury & Debt Management Team works diligently to mitigate the risks of financial uncertainty.  Financial services touch all services areas, bureaus and programs—and many have in- house business and financial staff. The new mayor-council alignment presents an opportunity to modify and improve citywide financial policies and operations to improve efficiency and transparency. Coming To Council The Accounting Division will complete the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for council in fall 2024, which is typically followed by a presentation to council to communicate the financial audit outcomes. 6 City of Portland, Oregon - FY 2025-26 Requested Budget
