Proposed budget and economic plan 2012-2015 for the municipality of Bergen

Description

Bergen municipality publishes the city council’s proposals for budget and financial plan as open data, where you can make your own compilations of the content of the operational and investment budget. More information about the budget can be found on our budget pages, www.bergen.kommune.no/budsjett Here you will find data in Excel format for the city council’s proposals for budget 2012 and the financial plan 2012-2015. There are separate files for operation and investment. Service area 23 — Under the line — central budget items, net generates the total amount that can be allocated to the service production of the urban treasury, defined by the other service areas 01-21. Therefore, in order to obtain comparable figures with some of the tables in the budget document, service area 23 must therefore be excluded from the cases where one shows the service production of the city treasury (net NOK 11.35 billion in the proposed budget proposal). Costra functions can be derived from the first 3 digits of our 5-digit service numbers. More about Kostra functions can be found at http://www.ssb.no/offentlig-sektor/kostra/ In some of the tables in the budget document, we have kept Bergen Municipal Buildings (BKB) and some key budget items outside when we have looked at the changes per service area. In the data base, everything is collected. It is done to show the service areas as the City Council will adopt them. Excel and open format Bergen municipality publishes the data base for the 2012-2015 financial plan as open data. This means that the municipality shares the information contained in our budget systems with the rest of society. The data is posted in machine-readable format as semicolon-separated CSV files. CSV is a format that can be shared across different technological platforms. The data contained in the files is no more detailed than what you can find in the budget documents printed or posted on the municipality’s website. But unlike paper and PDF, the data is in a format that makes separate analyses and assemblies easier. Changes along the way The budget is a living document. This means that the city council’s first recommendation to the budget is finally approved is subject to changes. The details and the concrete allocation of the budget for services, such as nursing homes and schools, will not be announced in February. Bergen municipality wants information about the municipality’s budget to be as easily accessible and as open as possible for residents and other interested parties. This is important for the sake of democracy and that the municipality manages large resources on behalf of the community.
