Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP)
If you want more transparency about the city's financial plans - you have come to the right place! Learn more and leave your thoughts about how Commerce City is preparing to meet long-term goals over the next decade.
About the Long Term Financial Plan
Commerce City is fully committed to budgeting responsibly and maintaining a sustainable financial outlook. As our community continues to grow and the cost of providing services rises, the city is taking a deeper dive into long-term financial forecasting. This effort goes beyond the standard annual budget to plan for long-term goals over the next decade.

These town halls are not about cutting services. They are about understanding what residents value, building a shared vision, and making strategic investments that serve our growing community for decades to come. Your input directly informs City Council and staff as they align resources with community priorities.
