Chicot County, Arkansas · Chicot County 2026 adopted budget

Chicot County — the money trail

$11,262,840
This is Chicot County's 2026 budget detail report as filed with the state. We use the "Original Budget" column, which is the budget the quorum court set for 2026. When the county moves money from one of its funds to another, those dollars can show up in both funds. Click any number to see exactly where it comes from. Where the trail goes dark, it becomes a numbered issue in the docket. New here? Read our story or take the plain-words tour.

Now you've seen it — say what matters. You don't write the budget; the people you elected do. But this is the record they answer to. Tell them what to lean into, or what to take a fresh look at, and why. Set the priorities.
