"Every local government is unique in the range of services it provides and how those services are delivered," writes the city's Finance Director. "For example, while both Healdsburg and Petaluma provide police, fire, water and sewer services, Sonoma does not.

These differences among many factors influence the total size of the city budgets and lead to inaccurate comparisons if not considered."
