Barring a recession, Marin County officials said Monday there will be little problem balancing the county’s budget over the next three years.
By fiscal 2022-23, however, they foresee a budget deficit of $1.2 million and that deficit growing to $3.9 million by fiscal 2023-24 even without a recession.
“Over the long term, our core revenues and our core expenses are just a little bit mismatched, particularly when we start to see slower property tax growth,” Bret Uppendahl, county budget manager, told supervisors during the second-to-last day of hearings on the fiscal 2019-20 budget.
