Financial Accountability & Transparency

Welcome to City of Warren’s Financial Accountability and Transparency dashboard, which contains a layman’s illustration of both the city’s fiscal health, and performance indicators of the services we provide. We are pleased to offer to the public an easy-to-understand analysis of how our local government functions, and how your money is allocated.

With one click on a dashboard module, you will be provided with information about our city, its financial health, results of citizen surveys and useful maps of vital assets. These modules are ever-changing as information unfolds throughout the year.

Fiscal information is based upon audited budgetary documents, and simplified by use of the Munetrix database that provides municipal graphs and charts directly from reports filed directly with the State of Michigan.

Performance measures are updated nearly in real-time by QALERT for citizen response and service queries, as well as a custom Data Dashboard created between CitiStat and the Wayne State University Center for Urban Studies. Our dashboard contains additional information specific to Warren, and of importance to its residents and leaders.

We are happy to share the results of our bi-annual Cobalt Community Research Citizen Satisfaction Surveys, Michigan State Benchmarking with other communities, and further analysis with our partners at the Southeast Michigan Council of Governments (SEMCOG).
