ARLINGTON, VA, March 7, 2023— The County Manager presented his Proposed FY 2024 Budget to the County Board at the monthly Board meeting in February. In the coming months, the Board will engage in a series of work sessions with County departments, commissions and schools to determine the FY 2024 adopted budget.
Of note, the Funding Summary shows that approximately $76.7 million in funding is being allocated for FY 2024 programs to preserve affordable housing and assist persons to meet their housing needs. Local tax dollar support for these programs totals approximately $46.2 million, or 5.0 percent of County government operations (General Fund excluding School’s transfer).
On March 9, the Board will hold a work session on the budget, which can be viewed here. AHS will be tracking these discussions. Watch our social media!
