Tuolumne County Supervisors To Discuss Budget, Approve Resolutions
Sonora, CA — The Tuolumne County Board of Supervisors will meet on Tuesday.
It starts at 9 am with a public and staff comment period. Later, at 10 am will be a presentation and vote on approving fiscal year 2024-24 budget adjustments (the fiscal year ends June 30) and providing direction on the development of the 2025-26 budget. Meeting documents note that during the current fiscal year, the county is anticipating a reduction in general revenues of $284,126. The declines are attributed to Lake Tulloch Concessionaire revenue, sales tax declines, and Cable TV Franchise fees. For example, the county initially anticipated to receive $6.6 million in sales tax revenue when the budget was approved last year, a mid-year budget review dropped the projection to $6.56 million, and the current projection is $6.50 million.
Of note, the county did reduce spending by $2.6 million via mid-year cuts, and that money is currently in contingencies. There have also been big cost savings due to things like a hiring freeze.
