Information

Referral History:

On March 2, 2015, the Finance Committee began an update of the County's Budget Policy. The Board-Administered Special Revenue reference binder was discussed in the context of budget policy as well. The Committee requested that staff continue to develop a summary report that describes all of these special revenues and includes a detailed list of how the funds are annually distributed. The details would include how the distribution of monies is annually determined, who gets the revenue, how much they get, and what the monies are used for. When available the report would list sums received and distributed to date as well as annual figures. This report is partially described in the supplement to the County Budget Policy adopted by the Board of Supervisors on December 3, 2013. Additionally, staff was directed to assign one of the allocation policies described in the supplemental policies to each Board administered special revenue. Staff was also directed to review potential best practices in budget policy for submission to the Committee. The Committee will review staff's recommendations and continue to review the County Budget Policy in its entirety. In the meantime, staff was directed to begin implementation of the new policies in the FY 2015/16 Recommended Budget and letter.
