Officials plan to close a $121.4 million budget gap without hiking taxes.
Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle unveiled the proposed 2022 budget that spends a good deal more than last year, but she says will put no new taxes on residents. The county is receiving $1 billion in federal relief that'll be split up over three years, that could cover programs like a guaranteed income pilot to 911 alternatives.
