Budget
We build and carry out the Mayor’s Operating Budget and Capital Plan. Our work helps the City make smart investments, and aims to create a thriving, robust, safe and equitable Boston.

Our office promotes the high quality delivery of services to Boston’s residents in a cost effective way. We evaluate City programs and then use our analysis to build, present, and manage the Mayor's Operating Budget. We also create the Capital Plan, a strategic document that shows how the City's investment in its infrastructure, such as bridges and roads, contributes to Boston's future.
