Anoka County tells a better budget story with OpenGov’s 2022 budget and $9M in transportation projects

Anoka County sought to improve its budget communication and financial transparency for its citizens and board members. The challenge was moving beyond a simple data dump to craft a compelling, easy-to-understand narrative around its financial story. To address this, the county turned to vendor OpenGov and its Budgeting & Planning suite.

By implementing OpenGov, Anoka County was able to create a clear budget story with context, which helped personalize the process and increase stakeholder investment. The solution provided by OpenGov brought together planning and financial data, enabling the county to better communicate how funds are used and to present a clear picture for future projects. This led to improved understanding and support from both board members and constituents.
