General Fund
Prior adopted budget not yet available.
All county funds

Both years exclude interfund transfers. General Fund spending is already included in all county funds; do not add them together. Changes are not inflation-adjusted. Bars are scaled within each card.
From revenue to surplus or deficit
General Fund · FY 2025–26 · After transfers
Start with revenue. Add transfers and other financing coming in, then subtract spending and financing outflows. The final bar is what remains, not another source of money.
Planned inflows and outflows are equal. Beginning fund balance is excluded. This is the General Fund only, not the whole county.
