2027–29 budgeting process and survey
ODDS is in the first step of the budgeting process: creating the 2027–29 Agency Request Budget. This step is how we advise the Governor’s Office. The Governor will use our requested budget to decide what she will propose to the Oregon Legislature later this year. Then, the Legislature will make the final budget. We’ll discuss this process more throughout the year.
Right now, ODDS is asking for ideas to put in our requested budget. These ideas are called policy option packages, or POPs. This year, all our requests must be budget neutral. That means, an idea can’t add new costs unless there’s a way to save money to cover those new costs. So, we’re looking for ideas that are more efficient.
ODDS created an online survey, so you have an easy way to share your ideas. The survey has six questions. It’s anonymous. They won’t know anything about you unless you share personal information in your answers.
