Here are the overall revenue and expense documents for previous years and 2011 initial projections, complete with tasty pie charts.

Here are some of the preliminary documents distributed to the common council, press, etc.

First up is the comparison of city employee numbers broken down by department in 1980, 1990, and 2009.

1980 - 2009 Lockport Employee Comparison

I'm rather surprised that employment numbers have already been reduced by 30% over the past 30 years. I've heard this before and it is interesting to see where the changes were.

Here are several of the budget request documents filed with the city clerk by each department:

Animial Control Budget Request
Assessor's Office Budget Request
Building Department Budget Request
Civil Service Budget Request
Clerk Budget Request
Community Beautification Budget Request
Community Development Budget Request
Dog Control Office Budget Request
Engineering Building Maintenance Budget Request
Fire Department Budget Request
Highway and Parks Budget Request
Police Department Budget Request
Waste Water Treatment Plant Budget Request

Hopefully these documents can give us some perspective when discussing the 2011 budget.
