To help residents navigate our financial landscape, it's important to distinguish between the two primary documents that guide the City of Amery's fiscal health: the City Budget and the Annual Financial Report.

Your Roadmap vs. Your Report Card

• The City Budget (The Plan): Think of the Budget as our financial roadmap for the upcoming year. It is a forward-looking document that outlines where the City’s revenue comes from (like property taxes and state aids) and exactly how we plan to invest those funds into our community—from police protection and street repairs to our beautiful park system. The 2026 Budget Book embedded below represents the City Council’s commitment to balancing essential services with long-term growth.

• The Annual Financial Report (The Result): If the budget is the plan, the Annual Financial Report is the report card. This document looks backward at the previous fiscal year to show exactly how the City actually performed. It is a comprehensive, audited record that ensures every dollar was spent according to the law and helps us maintain a strong credit rating, keeping future borrowing costs low for major projects.

Together, these documents ensure that the City of Amery remains transparent, accountable, and fiscally responsible to you, the taxpayer.
