Mono County Board of Supervisors Adopts FY 2026-27 Final Budget

MONO COUNTY, CA (September 24, 2026) – The Mono County Board of Supervisors has officially adopted the Fiscal Year 2026-27 Final Budget, approving a comprehensive plan that allocates resources to fund County operations and address key community priorities. The budget was adopted at the September 15, 2026 Board meeting.

The adopted budget totals $165,792,323 million in expenditures,  a decrease of $7.8 million compared to FY 2025-26. These expenditures are balanced with $147,386,746 in revenues and $18,405,577 in fund balance. The General Fund, which supports day-to-day County services, totals $69,851,417, representing a $3,918,632 increase over the prior year. This increase is supported by an $11.1 million carryover from the previous fiscal year.

In addition to funding ongoing County operations, the Board has made strategic allocations to several emerging priorities, including establishing a Consumer Protection Division within the District Attorney’s Office, improving our community centers to support online meetings, providing support for daycare programs including Little Loopers in June Lake, and making Information Technology improvements to digitize County records and bolster security. The remaining fund balance has been set aside as contingency to provide fiscal flexibility and safeguard against potential federal funding reductions.

“This budget is a direct result of our dedication to responsible stewardship and meaningful collaboration”, said Board of Supervisors Chair Jennifer Kreitz, District 1. “While keeping our core public services strong, we are actively directing resources toward key investments that will strengthen Mono County’s resilience and support our community for years to come.”

Finance Director Stephanie Trujillo commented, “Our adopted budget highlights Mono County’s steadfast commitment to long-term financial health. By balancing immediate operational needs with strategic foresight, we’ve built a fiscal plan that protects essential local services while preparing us to navigate upcoming economic shifts.”
