Monmouth Oregon 2017-2018 budget, visualized

A handful of years ago I became aware of someone who put out a poster of the federal budget he affectionately called “Death and Taxes”.  To better understand Monmouth’s finances, I thought I’d try my hand at doing a similar visualization of our city’s budget.  I often find it can be easier to see a visual representation of a whole bunch of numbers instead of mulling them over in a spreadsheet.
