Common, zero-centered scale. Each bar represents percentage change in the selected recipient measure.

  1. What else would you request before making a budget decision?
  2. Could dollar and percentage changes tell different stories?
  3. What could go wrong if AI combined county and municipal receipts?

Discussion prompts only. This file does not collect, store, or transmit participant responses.

Components, sources, and limitations

ComponentFY 2025FY 2026

BOCC total includes ordinary distributions, the Medicaid adjustment, emergency, supplemental, and fiscally constrained distributions. A negative adjustment is retained as a deduction.

These are half-cent sales-tax distributions—not property-tax revenues, total county budgets, or estimated amendment impacts. The figures do not identify causes of change.
