“These budgets are acceptable to us”
Fair Opportunity Budget
Proposed by Democratic Union · Passed 7 Jul 2023
Rationale
After years of underinvestment, Kalpetia can afford to do better. This budget strengthens education, healthcare, housing, pensions and infrastructure without raising taxes, while keeping arts funding above the voters’ target and preserving a strong surplus.
Figures show the previous budget where they changed the new value.
