Group overviews show how new state laws will affect Illinois counties – Center Square

Taylor Anderson from the Illinois Association of County Board Members said that the state’s budget situation will not be as easy to deal with as in the past couple years. “The numbers we’re starting to see for that are far less rosy than the last year’s budget picture. Right now we’re looking at a pretty significant deficit and so we’re not anticipating the budgetary process to be as smooth this upcoming fiscal year as it was for our current fiscal year.”
