Yuma County Supervisors Support Budget Limit Update via Proposition 435
What happened
Tony Reyes, Yuma County Supervisor for District 4, and Jonathan Lines, Yuma County Supervisor for District 2, support Proposition 435, a measure on the Yuma County ballot next month. They argue that the county's spending limit formula, which dates back to 1979 and 1980, needs updating to accommodate growth. Lines clarified that the proposition would change the county's spending ability, not the amount of tax collected.

Why it matters
The supervisors stated that the current budget formula may eventually restrict the county's ability to provide necessary services, such as flood control and libraries, as the county continues to grow. Without a change, Reyes noted that the county could face increasing limits on how it uses the money it already receives.
