WHAT:
Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer and the Orlando City Council will hold a workshop and two public hearings to determine the millage rate and budget for Fiscal Year 2020/2021.

At the budget workshop on Monday, July 20, the City will outline how Orlando is preparing to respond to future economic challenges as the COVID-19 pandemic continues while maintaining and delivering core city services that residents depend on.
