Montgomery County commissioners have reviewed a preliminary budget for the 2026-27 fiscal year. The budget totals approximately $537.3 million, which is an increase from the previous year's adopted budget. The proposal is based on the current tax rate and includes unallocated funding that commissioners can direct towards priorities.
Further details on the budget and its implications are available from the county. Budget workshops are scheduled to begin on August 11, where commissioners will discuss the proposal and make decisions on allocations. For more information on the budget and upcoming workshops, readers can refer to the original source.
