The budget presented by VCVB to the Valdez City Council shows just over 1.2 million dollars in expenses for 2026. The City Council cash request is for $562,500.

The chart below (included in the work session packet) outlines the expected income and expenses for a number of events. Details of how event income will be generated is not included in the proposal.
