Louisville Metro Budget Plan
$1.2 Billion for a Louisville That Works for Everyone
Same budget. Better priorities. No new taxes.
How We Fund Transformation Without Raising Taxes
Dave’s budget isn’t about spending more—it’s about spending smarter. The total budget remains $1.2 billion, the same as the current administration. The difference is priorities.
📊 Zero-Based Budgeting
Every department justifies every dollar annually. No more automatic increases for programs that don’t deliver results.
💰 Prevention Savings
Wellness centers return $2-3 for every $1 invested through reduced emergency room visits and crisis interventions.
🎯 Performance Metrics
Funding tied to measurable outcomes. Programs that work get expanded; those that don’t get reformed or cut.
🤝 Public-Private Partnerships
Leverage private investment for infrastructure projects, reducing taxpayer burden while creating jobs.
