Peoria County Finance Audit & Legislative Affairs Committee

The Peoria County Finance Audit & Legislative Affairs Committee met on June 11, 2026, to review financial reports and discuss policy updates. The committee examined the first quarter financial report, noting revenues and expenses tracking slightly below the expected 25% of the fiscal year, with state shared revenues exceeding budget expectations. They discussed charges for services being under budget, particularly in criminal cases and federal detention, and agreed to conduct a deeper analysis on this area. The committee also reviewed accounts payable totaling $5.87 million for April and received updates on capital projects funding and progress. Two key resolutions were passed: one revising the Peoria County Travel Policy to consolidate and update travel guidelines, and another updating purchase card, petty cash, and investment policies to align with state guidelines. These policy changes aim to improve financial controls and procurement practices within the county.
