Poinsett County, Arkansas · Poinsett County 2026 adopted budget

Poinsett County — the money trail

$14,481,266.82
This is Poinsett County's 2026 budget, adopted by Appropriation Ordinance 2025-26 and filed with the state as a scanned copy. We use the budget amounts in the county's January 2026 budget detail report; every fund matches the ordinance, and together they equal its $14,481,266.82 in total expenditures. The General Fund also moves $2,302,065.60 to other county funds; that money is spent and counted in the funds that receive it, so it is not added again here. 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.
