Where the money goes — FY2025 General Fund
Source: FY 2025 Annual Operating Budget — department amounts are the "Total [department]" rows of the book's General Fund expenditures comparison of adopted budget (pp. 53–58); all 37 rows sum exactly to the table's stated total. The ten largest departments are shown individually; the remaining 27 are combined. Shares are computed from the book's own figures and may not sum to 100.0% due to rounding.
Bonded debt — June 30, 2024
Source: Annual Comprehensive Financial Report, fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, Note III.M.12 (p. 76). Bonds only, at June 30, 2024. The ACFR's Note III.M.12 reports total long-term liabilities of $565,072,188, which adds the net pension liability ($325,362,985), total OPEB liability ($155,178,000), compensated absences, claims and other obligations to the bonds above; those are not bonded debt and are not included. The discretely presented Landfill Authority (component unit) carries a further $1,905,000 of revenue bonds, also not included. The ACFR's MD&A names the bonded issues as the 2017 Tax Allocation Refunding Bond, the 2019 Urban Redevelopment Refunding Bond, and the 2021 SPLOST Bond.
About these figures
The budget figures are the adopted FY2025 amounts from the FY 2025 Annual Operating Budget (Clayton County Board of Commissioners). The book's funding summaries are titled "Summary of Adopted Funding," its department table is headed as a comparison of the adopted budget, and the amounts above use those tables' labels; one narrative paragraph in the book (p. 52) describes the comparison as "FY2025 Proposed," a wording inconsistency inside the book that is disclosed here. All-funds adopted total by fund: General Fund $316,954,921; Special Revenue $66,360,665; Pension Trust $53,380,800; Internal Service $24,177,893; Debt Service $14,454,476; Enterprise $3,203,325; Capital Projects $0 — summing exactly to $478,532,080.
Fund balance, debt, and population figures are audited FY2024 results from the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. Clayton County's fiscal year ends June 30.
