Sources & notes
- Only source used: County of Orange FY 2025-26 Final Budget ASR, Attachment A (645 pages: resolution + Exhibits 1-A through 9-C), June 24, 2025 Board agenda. Read the Final Budget ASR.
- Sum checks: $10,800,247,030 − $10,768,884,611 = $31,362,419; the five largest controls ($4,068,590,533) + computed residual ($6,731,656,497) = $10,800,247,030 exactly.
- Disclosed, not smoothed: (1) no General Fund subtotal is printed in the B0001 report, so no General Fund total is claimed; (2) no all-funds revenue total row appears in the B0004 report as retrieved, so no all-funds revenue total is claimed; (3) the "all other budget controls" line is a computed residual, not a printed subtotal.
- Fiscal-year label: FY 2025-26 (July 1, 2025–June 30, 2026); adopted June 24, 2025, by resolution adopting the Recommended Budget as the Final Budget subject to Exhibits 1–9 changes.
- Jurisdiction palette: no verified Orange County palette was on file, so this page uses the neutral Hometown Numbers dark-glass theme rather than a county color.
