Current Budget

After the fiscal year has ended, the county’s annual audit is performed. This process culminates with the issuance of the Annual Audit Report or Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), which presents the actual revenues and expenditures for the prior fiscal year and discusses the county’s financial position. The ACFR is also useful in the preparation of the county’s budget in subsequent years as it can be used as a model for future predictions of the county’s revenues and expenditures.
