Brown County Courthouse

(KNZA)--The Brown County Commission has begun the 2020 budget process.

Department heads and organizations receiving funding from the County meet with the Commission Monday to go over their budget requests for next year.

Most are requesting the same amount of funding or additional funding.

The largest funding request is for the county Road and Bridge Department, nearly $3.6 million.

The second largest request is for the Sheriff’s Department.  Sheriff John Merchant is requesting more than $1.7 million for the sheriff’s office, dispatch and jail.

Commissioners will now begin the process of drafting a proposed 2020 budget for publication.

The budget would then be adopted following a public hearing.
