Mayor John Ewing Jr. unveils his first major budget proposal for Omaha, packed with bold investments in parks, libraries, and police staffing — all aimed at transforming city services without raising property taxes. With a nearly 20% parks boost to hire new staff and fill a vacant director role, an 8% police funding jump to reach full staffing and improve officer pay, and an 8% library collections increase to slash book wait times from 35 to 20 days, this budget signals a city focused on growth, equity, and efficiency — all before City Council’s August 11 public hearing.
