Battani says Kalamazoo County could face a budget shortfall of about $82 million within the next five years unless changes are made.
Kalamazoo County Administrator Peter Battani will introduce the topic on Tuesday, and will aim to have the board start discussions on retiree health care at its April 16 meeting. Battani said the board will discuss retiree health care first because the county has an unfunded liability of about $65 million.
