FORMATION OF INCOME OF LOCAL BUDGETS IN FINANCIAL INSTABILITY CONDITIONS
Introduction. In today’s conditions of socio-economic development of the state, local budgets are one of the key sources for meeting the needs of society. Most of the state-directed expenditures on social development are financed from local budgets. That is why the revenues of local budgets are a decisive component of regional development. Providing local budgets with financial resources increases the ability of local authorities to meet the needs of the population. Financial and economic relations of local self-government bodies, arising from accumulation of funds to local budgets and provision of public services to citizens, require careful study to ensure the sustainable development of territorial communities and socio-economic development of the country as a whole.

It is proved by way of example that all reflected data on the increase of autonomy, autonomy and independence of local budgets when filling out and using budget resources in connection with the socio-economic development of the regions.
Conclusions. Thus, the system of obtaining income from local budgets is a combination of forms and means of mobilizing revenues to local budgets, as well as relations arising in the process of organizing a system of financing local budgets between management bodies, economic entities and citizens, which is the economic essence of the system.
