Hunzeker Announces Proposed Manatee County Budget

Government

County Administrator Ed Hunzeker rolled out a recommended budget for Manatee County next year that will pay for 12 new Sheriff’s Office deputies and cover a host of infrastructure projects including a new Lincoln Park Pool, extensions for 44th Avenue and improvements for Canal and Moccasin Wallow roads. Property tax rates are proposed to remain unchanged for the 12th consecutive year. Hunzeker announced next year’s proposed budget to the County Commissioners yesterday. The gross budget for next year is a recommended $1.4 billion, which includes reserves, internal services and transfers. The net budget of $723 million is buoyed by an estimated 9 percent growth in the tax base. County Commissioners will review the budget in detail during a series of public workshops this summer. Two public hearings will be held in September.
