Summary
Staff proposed creating a new county fund (2330) to track expenditures and revenues for a state community‑based grant totaling $85,052; the board asked staff to forward details to the county finance officer for inclusion in the budget process.
County staff told the board they will create a new fund line (fund 2330) to account for an $85,052 state community‑based grant the county administers for a nine‑county program.
Melissa explained the change is recommended by the county’s auditors to ensure grant revenues and expenditures are tracked within a discrete fund so reimbursements and pass‑through payments to partner entities are clearly matched. The grant includes line items for personnel, operating expense and supplies; county staff said they manage reimbursements to participating entities and will send the detailed draft budget and line coding to the county’s finance officer, Caleb, for inclusion in the budget process.
The board directed staff to proceed with providing the fund documentation to the finance office and to include the fund during the upcoming budget review. The county will approve budget allocations for the grant during the normal budget cycle.
