County Administrator Jeff Aluotto says the $290.7 million proposed budget is structurally balanced. That s thanks in part to the board s decision last year to levy a quarter cent sales tax to shore up the budget for five years. (The tax was a continuation of the now former Union Terminal restoration levy, which expired March 31. Collections for the county s levy began April 1.) Aluotto suggests the county would have faced a $36-40 million gap without the tax.
Commission President Denise Driehaus calls the spending plan the the most optimistic budget she s seen in her time on the board, adding it s a pretty good news budget in a pretty difficult time.
