A City of Roseburg release said the 16-person committee – comprised of eight city councilors and eight Roseburg residents will discuss the proposed budget. They may also meet Wednesday night at 7:00 p.m. and on Thursday night, as needed until the budget is approved.

Residents can watch the meeting in person or on the city’s Facebook page. Public comment can be provided in person or via Zoom or email. The proposed budget is $104,307,207 for fiscal year 2023/2024.
