# Peoria County Ways & Means Committee

The Peoria County Ways & Means Committee meeting on October 27, 2026, included departmental reports and review of the FY2027 budget. The committee unanimously approved the presented committee action following a budget overview: the Ways & Means-related departments were projected to have just under $6 million in revenue and more than $5 million in expenditures, with sources increasing by about $300,000 (5%) and uses by about $175,000 (just under 4%) compared with the FY2026 revised budget. The countywide overview cited a $61.1 million general fund budget and $183 million across all funds. No contract awards, bids, or vendor selections were identified.

The committee discussed, but did not proceed with, assessment software that could help review exemptions and tax bills. The supervisor of assessments said the proposed expense was removed from the FY2027 budget pending further information, including results from a planned one-year review, and because FY2027 is a reassessment year with additional required costs. The software may be reconsidered through the budget process later. The county also expects to continue its four-year intergovernmental agreement with Limestone Township; the township may exit after FY2027, but the supervisor anticipated completing the agreement. Other actions included unanimous approval of the September 21 meeting minutes and the resolutions presented; no spending amounts or procurement details were stated for those resolutions.
