On the county's budget and finance page you will find access to York County's key financial documents, including annual budgets, audits and financial reports. https://yorkcountypa.gov/county-administration/budget-and-finance.html We welcome you to review these documents, which will help explain the functions of county government and how public money is spent. Perhaps the two most important documents for understanding the County's financial picture are the Budgets and Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports. The annual budgets are approved by the County Commissioners each year and reflect projected revenue and expenditures. Available here are both a line-item summary of each year's budget and a presentation meant to help highlight trends. The comprehensive annual financial reports outline actual expenses and revenues in a given year, and provide an accounting of the County's assets and liabilities. York County Government
