Fiscal Year 2016 Budget deliberations

The Budget Ordinance is the county’s financial plan for the next fiscal year, which begins July 1, 2015.  It determines how much money each department receives to provide services such as fire and police protection, public transportation, water and refuse collection, and how much is collected from the public through taxes and fees.

“It is critical to hear from the public how the council should prioritize taxpayers’ money – it’s their money,” Budget and Finance Committee Chair Riki Hokama said. “My goal is to come up with a fiscally prudent and balanced budget that will make sure key county services are maintained.”

The budget also sets forth the amount of grant money offered to community organizations and establishes funding levels for capital improvement projects, such as road paving, park improvements and water system upgrades.

Written testimonies may be emailed to bf.committee@mauicounty.us, referencing BF-1.
