Local officials have the difficult task of balancing maintaining crucial public services while facing a budget deficit of $10 million.
Despite state and local funding sources shrinking, San Mateo County unanimously approved a $4.2 billion budget this week for the upcoming fiscal year.These include funds for health and mental health care, jobs programs, early learning, food security and investments in ending homelessness.“ is due mainly to the completion of several capital projects and the end of pandemic-era and other state and federal grants,” the county said in a statement.
Among the county’s strategies to shore up funding for critical programs amid the deficit is spending funds from Measure K, a local sales tax.“I’m not interested in asking taxpayers for more money,” Mueller said. “Our taxpayers are feeling it now more than ever.” Separately, supervisors approved using $9.1 million from local Measure K funds to support programs serving children, families and seniors.
