Presentation regarding the Maricopa County FY 2019 Recommended Budget. (C-49-18-026-P-00)
(C-49-18-029-P-00) (C-49-18-035-P-00)
Cynthia Goelz, Budget Director
Brian Hushek, Deputy Budget Director
Lauren Cochran, Budget Manager
Cindy Goelz introduced Brian Hushek and Lauren Cochran and thanked Chairman Chucri and his Chief
of Staff, Page Gonzales, for their help in making this process a success. She thanked all of the elected
officials and their staff for working collaboratively with budget staff that led to the completion of this final
product.
The total budget for Maricopa County is $2,457,317,735. Ms. Goelz stated this budget aligns with
Chairman Chucri’s vision for a smart, sustainable future and supports the priorities of exceptional
customer service and a lean and efficient government.
Ms. Goelz reviewed the budget guidelines and priorities that were adopted by the Board of Supervisors
on January 10, 2018.
In developing the budget it was a key assumption to keep a structural balance in operating funds. This
requires that recurring revenues meet or exceed recurring expenditures over the economic cycle. The
most likely revenue streams are:
 State shared sales tax
 State shared vehicle license tax
 The jail excise tax
Reserve contingencies are based on historical utilization and revenue risks. They are built into the
budget in anticipation of an economic downturn.
Ms. Goelz reviewed zero-based budgets and listed the nine offices that submitted zero-based budgets
for fiscal year 2019. They are as follows:
 Budget Office
 Constables
 Correctional Health General Fund
 County Manager
 Finance
