City of Bristol, Connecticut Modernizes Budget Communication With ClearGov’s Digital Budget Book

The city recently adopted its 23/24 financial plan and published an engaging website-based budget book using ClearGov’s innovative budget cycle management solutions. 

ClearGov, the leading provider of cloud-based budget and performance management software built for local governments, is pleased to announce that the City of Bristol, Connecticut has published its 23/24 budget book using ClearGov’s Digital Budget Book solution. The website-based budget presentation enhances the city’s commitment to transparency and modernizes their budget communication strategy by providing its residents with easy access to financial information in a user-friendly and interactive format.

ClearGov’s Digital Budget Book empowers local governments to present their budget data in a visually engaging format that provides residents with a complete understanding of the city’s financial health. Leveraging ClearGov’s innovative technology, Bristol was able to streamline its budgeting processes while also developing a budget book that makes financial data more digestible to its residents.  

Benefits of ClearGov’s Digital Budget Book solution include:

Enhanced Transparency: Bristol is able to provide its residents with insight into the city’s finances, which ensures greater accountability and trust between the government and its residents.

User-Friendly Interface: ClearGov’s platform offers intuitive navigation and an interactive experience that allows residents to explore budget data in a way that makes sense to them. This user-friendly approach fosters civic engagement and makes complex financial data accessible to all.

Accessible Anytime, Anywhere: The city’s digital budget book lives on the ClearGov website at all times. The city can link to the page from their website, share it in email, or on their social sites, so that residents can view the budget at their convenience–whether at home, in the office, or on the go.

Real-time Updates: Any changes Bristol makes to its budget will automatically be reflected in its digital budget book, unlike static PDF budget books that have to be manually updated. This keeps the city’s residents informed with up-to-date financial information, which is especially helpful when there are changes to budget items that directly impact residents, like capital projects. 

ClearGov takes pride in supporting local governments like the City of Bristol in their mission to improve transparency and communication while providing easy access to critical budget data.
