FY2025 Jasper County Proposed Budget

October 17, 2024

At the October 17, 2024 Jasper County Board Meeting the Board voted to display the FY2025 Jasper County Budget with final discussion and passage at the November 21, 2024 meeting.

A required step in the budget process, the proposed budget must be displayed for 15 days before a final vote.  A full copy of the proposed budget can be viewed at the link provided below.  A copy of the full budget will also be available for public inspection in person at the Jasper County Treasurer’s office.  Any changes or suggestions can be addressed at the full board meeting on November 21, 2024.  The Couty Board is permitted to amend the budget at the November meeting.  It is encouraged that any changes or suggestions to be addressed to the County Board or County Treasurer prior to the meeting if possible.

(55 ILCS 5/6-1001) Counties Code Annual Budget.  The County Board shall adopt each year an annual budget under the terms of this Division for the succeeding fiscal year.  Such budget shall be prepared by some person or persons designated by the County Board and such budget shall be made conveniently available for public inspection and provided to the public at a public meeting at least fifteen days prior to the final action thereon expect that nothing in this Act shall restrict a County Board from acting at a public meeting to amend a budget after making that budget available to the public and prior to the final adoption.

As mentioned in previous years the County never has a “balanced budget.”  The County is conservative on revenue estimates and plans for the worst on the expense estimates.  Typically, the budget submitted and approved will show a negative balance despite most years ending with a positive balance.
