The $1.77 billion spending plan passed by a 13-4 vote, with only the Republican members opposing it. It now goes to County Executive Andrew Spano to sign or veto. Legislators also approved the $93 million capital budget plan, which was 19 percent less than this year's.
Absent from the budget were raises for nonunion management. The controversial proposal was removed after 20 speakers at a public hearing spoke out against the plan earlier on Monday.
The budget includes no layoffs among the county's work force.
