Market square and historic town hall City of Rastatt

Household: General information

Draft budget

At the end of the previous year, the administration prepares a draft budget for the coming financial year and for the three subsequent financial planning years. All areas of the municipal administration are asked to plan the budget funds required for this.

The draft budget is presented to the municipal council for discussion. The municipal council then votes on the budget bylaws with the submitted budget plan. A budget becomes legally valid once it has been checked and approved by the regional council as the supervisory authority.

Budget

The so-called New Municipal Budget Law (NKHR) has been applied in Rastatt since 2013. The budget was converted to the principle of double-entry bookkeeping ("double-entry accounting"), which is also used in the economy. This enables the consumption and revenue of resources to be shown, also in terms of sustainability, as well as the municipal assets. The budget shows all municipal areas of responsibility with their income and expenditure.

Sub-budgets

The budget of the city of Rastatt is divided into nine sub-budgets, which have been formed according to product areas. The municipal services are assigned to the individual sub-budgets in the form of product groups.
