FY 2027 County Budget and School Funding
The Board was scheduled to close the record on the staff-recommended FY2027 operating and capital budget and review the commissioners' own recommended budget — the blueprint for county services, roads, and taxes next year.
FY 2027 Capital Budget and 2027–2032 Capital Improvement Plan
The Board took up the staff-recommended capital budget and six-year Capital Improvement Plan, which sets what gets built and maintained countywide over the next several years.
