Klickitat County officials have been working on their budget for 2024.  County Commission Chair Dan Christopher says for the most part it is a status quo plan, and very bare bones.  He thinks people would be pleased with what they’ve done, but does acknowledge rising costs are becoming a challenge that property tax increases can’t keep up with.  He said they did not have to do much in the way of cuts, adding some budgets went down slightly but others went up in the same way.
