Public hearings for the county’s 2019 budget are underway this week as departments heads and elected officials are presenting their requests for operating costs to the Dawson County Board of Commissioners.
The hearings will continue through Thursday of this week as well as Monday through Thursday next week.
The requests will be considered as the BOC chairman and finance department create the recommended budget, which will be presented to the rest of the commission in September for adoption in early October.
