TIPS ON PREPARING AN EFFECTIVE PROPOSAL

摘要

Afire service administrator (FSA) competes with numerous other city services to receive money for his organization. To obtain these funds, the FSA must provide research with accurate data and statistics, become involved in community projects, and develop a working relationship with the officials who will vote on the proposal. In addition, the FSA must also research alternate ways to fund the proposal if it is not approved. Public safety (fire and police) budgets can take up to 35 percent or more of a community's entire operating budget. Other services such as recreation, public works, and libraries will also be developing proposals for their budgets. An FSA must present a very persuasive proposal to the city council to receive more funds from the community's operating budget.
