Join us for the first Follow the Clucking Money workshop!

Cracking open Petaluma’s budget, one egg at a time!

Learn what really hatches inside the city budget—revenues, expenditures, and the choices that shape our community.

Come for the free pizza, stay for the yolks!

Have you ever stared at a city program and thought, “Wait…we spent how much on that?!” You’re not alone - and you’re exactly who this workshop is for.

Come kick off our brand‑new series, Follow the Clucking Money, where we turn Petaluma’s budget mysteries into community power. We’ll break down where our dollars come from, where they go, why the choices are tougher than they look, and how every resident can shape what happens next.

For the past six months, our project team has been knee‑deep in Petaluma’s financials…sales tax, property tax, enterprise funds, the annual financial report…all the gritty details. It’s been a wild ride, and we’re ready to share what we’ve uncovered.

You’ll get:

• A first look at what we’ve learned

• A friendly, no‑jargon walkthrough of the city’s money flows

• A chance to tell us what you want to explore next

Budget season is here. Your voice matters. Your curiosity matters. And your participation can help shape what Petaluma invests in.

Come learn, laugh, and help steer the flock.

RSVP for pizza!

Doors open at 6:45 pm!
