WorkDay ERP Implementation

The county's new Workday system went live October 1 and payroll accuracy and direct deposit are at risk. The Board set October 26 as the decision point before falling back to paper checks, and formed a committee to triage issues. All employees should verify their bank details in Workday.

Final Recommended Budget FY 2026-2027

This is the county's spending plan for the next fiscal year — it determines funding for sheriff's deputies, roads, parks, libraries, and every other county service. The Board heard testimony on day two but won't finalize the budget until June 18, so residents still have a window to weigh in.
