Grant County, Arkansas Β· Grant County 2026 adopted budget

Grant County β€” the money trail

This is Grant County's 2026 annual budget as filed with the state. Amounts are the projected expenses the quorum court adopted for each office and fund. The county also moves money between its own funds: $2,098,444.47 of transfers out are budgeted, so those dollars appear in both the fund that sends them and the fund that receives them. Click any number to see exactly where it comes from. Where the trail goes dark, it becomes a numbered issue in the docket. New here? Read our story or take the plain-words tour.

Now you've seen it β€” say what matters. You don't write the budget; the people you elected do. But this is the record they answer to. Tell them what to lean into, or what to take a fresh look at, and why. Set the priorities.
