BUDGETPALOOZA TO EXAMINE MCPS BUDGET ON FEBRUARY 26 IN BETHESDA

It's well known that Montgomery County Public Schools account for the vast majority of spending in the Montgomery County Government's annual budget. What's less well known is what exactly goes into that budget.

The Montgomery County Civic Federation plans to give anyone interested a chance to find out, and maybe gain some ideas and suggestions of where to reduce or expand it, next Thursday night in Bethesda.

MCCF's third annual Budgetpalooza will give citizens the opportunity to take a small part of this big budget and analyze it, one chapter at a time. If you'd like to volunteer to take a chapter at the event, you can sign up online.

The Budgetpalooza will be on February 26 from 7-9:30 PM, at the Bethesda-Chevy Chase Regional Services Center at 1480 Edgemoor Lane. Co-sponsors of the event include the Montgomery County Taxpayers League and the Parents' Coalition of Montgomery County. To participate in the event on Twitter, use the hashtag #Budgetpalooza.

A volunteer organization, the MCCF consists of appointed delegates from the county's civic, neighborhood and homeowner organizations, as well as individual civic activists.
