General Fund — FY 2027 Adopted
General Fund appropriations are $581,226,100 and General Fund revenue is $635,906,200, as labeled in the budget's citywide summary. The fund-group table reports General Fund departments at $794,262,200 — a broader grouping than the General Fund appropriations figure — so the two are not added together or reconciled into one number; each is reported under its own document label.
