Homeless shelter crisis — Saving Grace closure
Not yet determined — funding sources and management are still being worked out.

No cost — the county already owns the frequency.

No direct county spending tied to this item; a critic said the 2026 budget underfunded volunteer firefighters.
Prison nurse staffing shortage
Overtime costs come from Operating Expenses, not a 2026 budgeted line.
GEO Reentry Services Renewal
No rate increase in the extension year; a multi-year contract will be negotiated next.
