Recommended Budget
*2023 Recommended Budget Review*
The 2023 Macomb County recommended budget was presented yesterday to the Board of Commissioners. For the second year, the budget exceeds $1 billion. Of that, over $300 million is recommended for use from the General Fund. The budget also includes fully funded pensions and a fund balance of over $100 million.
Priorities outlined for the upcoming year's budget include: enhancing public safety and public health, investments in capital infrastructure, road construction/maintenance and community action programs.?
Now that the proposed budget is in hand, the Board of Commissioners will begin to publicly examine the recommendations set forth by the Office of the County Executive and further learn from each department what their needs are for the upcoming year and beyond. As fiduciaries of the budget, the Board of Commissioners is dedicated to protecting taxpayer dollars and ensuring they are allocated efficiently and where needed. They are committed to providing you, the citizens, ample opportunities to participate in budget discussions.
?The Board of Commissioners takes great pride in ensuring the proposed budget is best serving the citizens of Macomb County.? said Board Chair Don Brown. ?We strive to always put the needs of our community at the forefront and are committed to ensuring the taxpayers responsible spending.??
?Each year we have been able to improve the budget process to ensure our fiduciary duty to the taxpayer,? said Finance/Audit/Budget Committee Chair, Joe Sabatini. ?Over the course of the next two months we will thoroughly review all aspects of the budget at a public meeting.?
To help establish Macomb County?s future priorities the public is encouraged to participate in the budget process. The board meetings are open to the public and there are two opportunities for individuals to speak, once at the beginning of the meeting and again at the end. All meetings are held on the 9th Floor of the County Administration Building at One South Main Street in downtown Mount Clemens.?
