More than half of all counties in Oregon are facing budget shortfalls and cuts to programs and services. In Washington County, officials are proposing more than $25 million in reductions to the $2 billion budget that would include eliminating jobs and services. In Coos County, the sheriff’s department released some of those serving time in its jail last year. In 2024, county voters turned down two different tax levies to fund government services. Even after making cuts, Coos County still faces a gap of about $1.8 million. John Sweet is one of the three commissioners that govern Coos County. Kathryn Harrington is the chair of the Washington County Commission. They both join us to share more about the budget challenges and how they’re thinking about potential cuts to programs and services for their residents.

St. Johns County Commissioner Clay Murphy joins us in studio!

(The Center Square) - Spokane County is preparing to establish a regional task force over the coming weeks to develop a tax proposal to fund a new jail after the last push fell short in 2023. The Board of County Commissioners and the Spokane Valley City Council both discussed the initiative during separate meetings on Tuesday. Commissioner Chris Jordan said the city of Spokane may bring it to a vote in the next few weeks, highlighting the regional collaboration. Support this podcast: https://secure.anedot.com/franklin-news-foundation/ce052532-b1e4-41c4-945c-d7ce2f52c38a?source_code=xxxxxx Read more: https://www.thecentersquare.com/washington/article_5a6c07f8-048b-43e3-9e3b-38af11541634.html

US 50/301 Ramp Management Program - Town Hall, April 23, 2025

In April of 1904, Wahpeton had four newspapers, each with its own political slant. At the time, J.A. Rickert was a prominent figure in Richland County. He'd served as County Commissioner, County Treasurer, County Sheriff, and President of the Board of Education. Rickert owned a significant amount of property and was known for his success in both farming and business, including a mercantile store in Lidgerwood.

Scott Wagner, Clay County Commissioner | 4-15-25See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 2021, the Bucks County Planning Commission's role in County government expanded to include sustainability staffers with the goal of reducing the county's carbon footprint and figuring out how to be more sustainable. Just a couple of years later, the County Commissioners passed a pretty monumental agreement for the department called the Sustainable Energy Partnership of Southeast Pennsylvania. The County of Bucks spends over $1 million in energy costs each year for its multi-building operations, and taxpayers deserve the best bang for their buck. In this episode, we'll chat with Evan Stone, Executive Director of the Bucks County Planning Commission and frequent guest of the podcast, about his department's functions and his specific interest in stormwater management. And later, we'll chat with Neale Doughtery, Director of Sustainability, and Cassandra Goodmansen, Environmental Planner, about their plans to help a county workforce of over 2,000 go green. Follow us: Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. Check us out online: BucksCounty.gov Music Credit: Creative technology -- Music by Ivan Ohanezov from Pixabay  Our daily life -- Music by FASSounds from Pixabay

(The Center Square) - Providing what he called a “reality check” on Monday, Jeff McMorris, senior director of Spokane County's Finance and Administration Division, warned of a $20 million deficit heading into 2026. McMorris, the brother of former U.S. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Washington, told the Board of County Commissioners that this is a multiyear issue. He took over from Randy Bischoff, who held the positions until recently and helped balance a similar shortfall last summer into the fall. Support this podcast: https://secure.anedot.com/franklin-news-foundation/ce052532-b1e4-41c4-945c-d7ce2f52c38a?source_code=xxxxxx Read more: https://www.thecentersquare.com/washington/article_036c1da6-0378-11f0-8e1f-9f16060ed445.html

Sullivan County Manager Derek Ferland is here as we talk about how the snowmobile season was, Discover Sugar River Region, nursing home renovation, moving the County Commissioners offices to Unity, the political environment, and more.

On today's show, I'm sitting down with Democratic New Hanover County Commissioner Rob Zapple to talk about his priorities and perspectives on the county's ongoing budget process. We asked Zapple about what he thinks about efforts to make the county more financially efficient — as well as calls to do away with the county's DEI office, and have the Endowment step in to help with funding in some areas.

On today's show, I'm sitting down with Republican New Hanover County Commissioner LeAnn Pierce about her thoughts and goals as the county's budget negotiations move forward. We asked Pierce, vice-chair of the Board of Commissioners, about her thoughts on where the tax rate should go — and ways to make the county more efficient, including calls to eliminate DEI and have The Endowment step in to support some previously county-funded programs.

On today's show, I'm sitting down with Democratic New Hanover County Commissioner Stephanie Walker to talk about her perspective on the county's budget negotiations — which are going on right now. Walker, who was recently elected to her first term as a commissioner in November after serving for four years on the county's school board, campaigned as a strong education advocate. So we asked her about education funding, but also other issues — including the proposed removal of the county's DEI program, and how The Endowment could step in with certain funding priorities.

Eighteen-year-old Joe Burgess ran for a seat on his county board and won. Burgess represents 3,000 people in District 5 of York County from his dorm room at UNL.

On today's show, a conversation with New Hanover County Commissioner Dane Scalise about taxes and government spending. Scalise recently penned an opinion piece in the Wilmington Business Journal, which we'll have links to on the page, where he laid out a fairly simple argument: if property values are going up, taxes should go down. So we invited him to the studio to unpack that idea, and get into some of the granular details of the county's budgeting process — including where Scalise would like to trim the budget, and where he'd like to spend more.
