By Becky Killian, Staff Writer

A public hearing was held for the county’s proposed $27.1 million 2025 budget.

No members of the public opted to comment on the hearing, which was held Tuesday, Sept. 3, during the Washington County Council meeting.

The proposed 2025 budget represents an increase of $1.6 million over the current year’s budget.

The Council will likely adopt the budget during the Monday, Oct. 7, regular meeting. It will then be sent to the state for review.
