St. Louis County Budget Talks Continue

After , St. Louis County Executive Charlie Dooley said Tuesday he’s still working with council members on the budget.

But Dooley wouldn’t provide specifics on what the proposal might be, referencing continuing talks with council members.

“We’re in that process now,” Dooley said. “I’m not going to comment because we’re in the process now of the budget process. Until we get to that point, we won’t know.”

Dooley said there has to be a budget before the council by Nov. 1.

The plan—which , among other expenses—got scrapped after a backlash from members of the council. Dooley apologized at a recent meeting, saying he did not communicate well enough about the proposal.
