What's Happening in Columbia
Financial Reports

Some of the most important decisions about how the Columbia Association will raise and spend money are made during the budget process. Construction of new facilities, the renovation of existing ones, provisions for new programs, the modification of existing services and the setting of rates are the kinds of decisions made by CA's Board of Directors.

Before the budget is approved, public hearings are held so that Village Boards, Advisory Committees, community groups and individual residents can comment on the budget and present recommendations to the CA Board. The CA Board tasks the Resident Budget Committee, a subcommittee of the Financial Management Committee, with analyzing and reporting back on various aspects of the budget.

The final budget is approved annually in February for implementation on May 1, the start of our fiscal year. Copies of the budget are available at your village community center, the Welcome Center, some CA facilities and at the public libraries in Columbia.
