Adopting the County budget requires tough decisions on funding local services. The Howard County Charter and Maryland Constitution mandate a balanced budget, ensuring revenues cover expenses.

The operating budget is a detailed plan covering the costs of running the county for a single year. It funds schools, public safety, trash collection, snow removal, and other public services. The operating budget consists of multiple funds, classified as either General or Restricted, and include loan payments on debt issued to finance capital projects.

The County prepares two sets of budget documents annually: the County Executive Proposed and the County Council Approved Budget.
