February

Preparation of the annual budget begins with the distribution of the capital budget and the five-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) instructions to departments.

April

The Office of Budget and Finance (OBF) distributes the operating budget instructions. These instructions provide parameters and guidelines from county administration to departments in the preparation of their operating and capital budget submissions.

September

The county administrator presents the proposed budget to the county board. County board votes to approve a maximum levy.

November

Property owners will receive a notice showing the impact of the county’s maximum levies on their properties, as well as the impact of taxes proposed by other local units of government, such as cities and school districts.

December 

Proposed levies will be discussed at the Truth in Taxation public meeting on Tuesday, December 3.

The property tax levies that commissioners ultimately approve in December may be lower than the approved maximums but cannot exceed the maximum levies adopted at the September meeting.
