Report to the community for fiscal year 2016-17
August 7, 2017
Today, the City of Columbia is releasing the Report to the Community for Fiscal Year 2016-17. From public safety to development corporations to utilities, the City’s Public and Media Relations Department has assembled a snapshot of the advances and improvements in all aspects of our city operations between July 1, 2016, and June 30, 2017.
“Each day staff in our city departments are working hard to keep Columbia operating effectively and efficiently. Many of our residents are not aware of all of the projects and programs that the City of Columbia implements within a fiscal year and this is our way of telling our story. This reports reflects some of those highlights and accomplishments,” says City Manager Teresa Wilson.
Public and Media Relations Director Leshia Utsey says, “Each year, this report is created for the community to see the infrastructure improvements, updates in operations and advances in service that may not make headlines but do improve the quality of life for the citizens, business owners and visitors to this city.”
