Budgets & Finance

The Finance Department manages the City of Madera’s financial operations and ensures the responsible use of public funds. Our goal is to maintain transparency, accountability, and fiscal stability in all City programs and services.

The department provides a wide range of financial services, including accounting, budgeting, purchasing, utility billing, and revenue collection. We also prepare key reports and documents that keep residents, businesses, and governing bodies informed about the City’s financial position.
