Fiscal Year 2018 Budget deliberations

The Budget Ordinance is the county’s financial plan for the next fiscal year, which begins July 1, 2017.  It determines how much money each department receives to provide services such as fire and police protection, public transportation, water and refuse collection, and how much is collected from the public through taxes and fees.

The budget also sets forth the amount of grant money offered to community organizations and establishes funding levels for capital improvement projects, such as road paving, park improvements and water system upgrades.

Written testimonies may be emailed to bf.committee@mauicounty.us, referencing BF-1.
