Budget Party was built to help people understand and augment a city budget for Savannah. It is an interactive app that is best used in context of a "Budget Party" event.
Historically, Budget party events have 4 parts:
- A budget Overview. A quick presentation is given to people that primes them on the city budget, specifically the parts that citizens can influence.
- Budget Party App Use. People get into small teams with neighbors to go through the app and allocate funds to different departments.
- Judging A selection of people with real city budgeting experience judge the submitted budgets and choose a winner based on the night’s criteria.
- Panel Discussion Once judging is done there is an open discussion on budgeting based on the submitted budgets, feasibility, and real world budgeting experience from the panelist/judges.
