Sonoma County supes OK $2.90B budget to preserve core services amid uncertainty

Sonoma County supervisors earlier this week approved a $2.90 billion budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, boosting spending while setting aside tens of millions of dollars to prepare for expected cuts in federal and state support.

In a statement released by the county public affairs office on Monday, officials said the spending plan aims to preserve core services, including health care, food aid, public safety and infrastructure, as local governments face uncertainty over future funding.
