This special board meeting was dedicated to approving the 2025/2026 Budget that was presented during the 9.23.2025 Budget Hearing. No other county business was conducted. The recommended budget reflects the results of weeks of discussions, analysis, and compromise. The proposed $150,910,034 budget is approximately $2 million less than what was originally requested by department heads.
