Background

At the January 12, 1996 Board meeting, I transmitted to the Board and public the AQMD's Program Goals/Objectives for Fiscal Year (FY) 1996-97. I believe it is important for as many interested parties as possible to have early input into the budget process. Therefore, I requested that a public hearing on this matter be scheduled for the February 9, 1996 meeting of the Board.

Attached are the Program Goals/Objectives transmitted last month. These goals, which may be modified as a result of public input and Board direction, will be used in developing next year's work program and budget request. A public workshop has been tentatively planned for April 17, 1996 to present the AQMD's budget request and Work Program for FY 1996-97.
