WELCOME TO LOUDOUN
A MESSAGE FROM THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR I am pleased to share with you, the residents of Loudoun, the Fiscal Year 2025 Budget Story. In this Budget Story, we explore how our $6.9 billion budget impacts you and how the new programs and resources will serve you in the coming year. The FY 2025 budget adds 254 positions in 26 different county departments to open new facilities, maintain or enhance current programs, support the county’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP), and pursue the Board of Supervisors’ strategic initiatives. The Board also continued to prioritize human services and behavioral health for the community as well as county employees. The Board adopted the FY 2025-FY 2030 CIP that totals approximately $3.5 billion for the six-year planning period and includes county and school projects, several of which are highlighted in the Budget Story. In the coming pages, you will find detailed appropriations information for the Board’s entire adopted budget, including a breakdown of the county’s main operating fund, the General Fund, which totals $2.7 billion for FY 2025. You will also find featured content that, I hope, will provide you with a deeper understanding of the value of your contribution as a taxpayer to the services provided to you, your family, your neighbors and your community.
