2026 Budget Amendments
December 15, 2025
The annual budget process is always challenging - determining how to deliver all the programs and
services our neighbors count on, implement new initiatives, support our County workforce while also
limiting the impact on our taxpayers and ensuring fiscal stability for what is ahead, including increasing
state mandates, declining federal support and economic uncertainty.
The 2026 budget process began with a $64 million budget gap, which means the total projected expenses
submitted by elected officials and executive departments exceeded projected revenue by $64 million.
These initial submissions included a countywide total of 29.5 new positions, at a cost of more than $3.2
million.
To close that gap, we met with each of the executive departments and with elected officials County Clerk
Brad Kendall, Comptroller Dan Aymar-Blair, Sheriff Kirk Imperati and District Attorney Anthony Parisi to
figure out creative ways to reduce costs while still achieving their priorities and delivering high quality
services to our residents. I am grateful to my Executive Department Heads and my fellow elected officials
for working with us to cut back on costs, particularly recurring position costs. They not only reduced their
new position requests but also stepped up to hold positions vacant and eliminate vacant positions. They
made a commitment to shared sacrifice - figuring out how to do more with less - because they know
that times are challenging for our taxpayers and we cannot risk future instability. At the end of this
process, we delivered a budget that deleted 10 vacant positions and held 17.5 positions vacant, saving
an additional $3.3 million for taxpayers, while still fully delivering the programs and services people need.
Countywide, only 2 new positions were added - school resource officers that are fully funded by the
school districts.
The legislative amendments adopted, draw down more than $7.2 million from fund balance (a one-time
revenue) and add only $200,000 in ongoing revenue. While most of the adopted amendments support
grant programs or other one-time expenses, the 5 DA positions added, totaling $711,058, constitute
ongoing costs and should not be funded with fund balance as that is not sustainable. Position costs need
to be funded with recurring revenue.
To be clear, I fully support District Attorney Parisi in his mission to protect our County, prosecute
offenders, and ensure the safety of our residents. We worked closely with him to identify what his top
position priorities were:
