Provisional figure. This budget is published with a caveat: it passed our source and plausibility checks but not every one of them. Census annual payroll is 28% of budget (expected 30%-135%); source text does not mention 'sheriff' or 'corrections' — wrong line item?. See how we check budget figures.
