Like every North Carolina county, Mecklenburg County must adopt an annual budget by July 1 for the fiscal year that ends June 30.
The next budget cycle begins as soon as the current budget is passed, and work is underway to develop the County Manager’s Recommended Budget to be presented in May.
The Mecklenburg Board of County Commissioners conducts a series of meetings and a public hearing, and determines the County’s spending plan and property tax rate to support it.
Mecklenburg County wants resident feedback on the County's priorities should be and provides multiple opportunities to provide input.
