Budget Basics:
Saving Enough For Nine Months Of Rainy Days & Three Months Of Road Construction
You know that old PNW joke, right? We have four seasons. They are rain, rain, rain, and road construction. Well, those four seasons take budgeting and planning. This is the time to start that budgeting and planning, especially for January-December fiscal year. Come learn how to research exactly how much your increases will be in each category, who to call so you can cite your sources, and how to have those tough conversations with boards and homeowners to make sure you ratify budgets so you can actually put funds away for those many rainy days.
