New Budget Director Joins Guilford County

Guilford County welcomes Aaron Brown as its new budget director, set to take the helm just before commissioners vote on the current budget—though he’ll shape future plans, grants, and fiscal strategy. Hailing from Wake County with nearly seven years of local finance experience, Brown was handpicked for his planning prowess and resource management skills. His arrival fills the void left by Toy Beeninga, who’s now moving to assistant county manager and will collaborate with Brown. Meanwhile, the county faces a potential property tax hike and loses finance director Don Warn, relocating to Greensboro. Brown, armed with degrees from Clemson and UNC Chapel Hill and past leadership in state budget associations, is eager to partner with leadership to deliver efficient, resident-focused fiscal stewardship.
