The City Finance Committee establishes guidelines for city budgeting and accounting, reviews and comments on city budgets to city officials to improve upon and use sound financial procedures. It also conducts studies of municipal revenues and expenditures, and advises and makes recommendations annually to the governor and the general assembly concerning city budgets and finance. Lastly, it acts as the appeal board for decisions rendered by the director of the department on rate limit appeals by cities.
