Learn About the Town of Pagosa Springs’ 2025 Budget, Tomorrow Oct. 17

The Pagosa Springs Town Council and staff have been busy working on a proposed annual budget to guide Town-wide operations in 2025. The annual budget serves as an important policy document and sets expectations for service delivery to the community. It also aligns with Town Council’s goals and objectives for the coming year.

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 proposed budget is fiscally conservative and utilizes Town resources to maintain economic development, sustain Town service levels across all funds, and address long-term infrastructure needs.

These funding priorities will all be accomplished within available resources.
