Budget Message 2023
As the County has been operating consistently under the set budget, it is the goal of the Commission to limit deficit spending to take a more fiscally conservative approach moving forward. It is our commitment to have greater oversight to appropriate the needed funds to every office more efficiently. This will better protect the interests of the taxpayers of our great County.
Pettis County continues to reap the benefits of cost saving measures that have been put in place over previous years. Additional cost savings are identified and explored continuously. Under the leadership of the Associate Commissioners, new processes are used in reclaiming deteriorated roads. New upgrades and procedures have allowed more miles of road improvements and a greater emphasis in bridge replacements. We will continue to increase the efficiency of our county government. I am proud to say that the citizens of Pettis County have, and will continue to receive, quality services from folks who really care about serving our neighbors.
The 2023 General Revenue Budget is balanced at $ 10,339,677.24. The 2023 Road and Bridge Budget is balanced at $ 29,210,517.44, which includes offsetting entries for potential MoDOT 80/20 Bridge Replacement Funding.
