Have you ever wondered how your tax dollars are spent? What are you buying when you pay your local taxes? We’ve created the chart below to help you visualize your tax dollars at work in your community. This chart shows the proportion of the Fiscal Year 2026 General Fund budget that is allocated to each functional area. Education and Public Safety have consistently been top priorities for our community, and this year is no different.
While this chart is a high-level overview of County expenditures, there are many other resources available on our website to answer just about any question you may have. The links on the left side of this page will take you to documents like the FY2026 Budget-In-Brief which provides a little more detail, the full FY2026 County Budget, audited financial statements, the financial transparency portal, and many more.
