The government for Cannon County, Tennessee is facing major budget issues. The Budget Committee met Thursday (10/27/2016) night and studied ways to reduce the money being spent.

Tennessee's State Comptroller office has declared that Cannon County's government is in a "financial crisis".

During the called emergency meeting, the committee considered asking each department to cut 2.42 per cent from its budget. As discussed, the departments would have the freedom to determine from where those cuts would come.

Reports indicate that it took six-years of Cannon County spending more money than was being taken-in for that government to get into the financial crisis it now faces.
