Woodruff County, Arkansas · Woodruff County 2026 adopted budget

Woodruff County — the money trail

$7,073,571.95
This is the county's 2026 budget (Ordinance 2025-15) as filed with the state. Fund amounts come from the ordinance's table of approved appropriations by fund; the parts under each fund are added up from the line-item budget. The line-item budget's General Fund adds to $50,000 less than the ordinance table, so that gap is shown, not hidden. 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.
