The county's $8 billion 2023-24 budget proposal, released last month, marks a 10% increase in spending -- allocating millions to the homeless crisis and adding ~500 new government jobs. The final budget hearing will be held this Thursday at 5:30 PM.
SAN DIEGO – The San Diego County Board of Supervisors will have the first of two public hearings today on the county’s recommended $8.11 billion budget for the 2023-24 fiscal year.
Supervisors released the proposed budget last month, with plans for major investments to address homelessness, mental health and substance use disorder, the criminal justice system and core services such as roads, fire protection and parks. According to the proposal, the increase in both budget and staff will go toward supporting “new and expanded social service programs and increasing caseloads to assist vulnerable populations.”
