“As the City’s
independent financial
watchdog, it’s my job to
tell you where your tax
dollars are going and
call out financial
decisions that hurt YOU,
the taxpayer; even when
it makes City Hall
uncomfortable.”

We made the City’s data and finances more accessible than ever before.

Through the Controller’s website, you can now:

  • Track homelessness spending
  • Look up any City official’s salary
  • Create your own city budget
  • Find affordable housing
  • Dig into the City’s liability payouts
  • and SO MUCH MORE!
