Page 60, Section VI.  BUDGET PROCESS AND STATE REVIEW
The Budget Process is established by State statute. (CRS 26-1-l24; 29-1-101 through
29-1-115, and 30-25-101 are the relevant statutes.) The proposed budget is to be
submitted to the County Commissioners no later than October 15 of each year.
Consultation with the Division of Field Audits or the Division of Field Services is available
on request.
Staff responsible for budget preparation must keep in mind that the fund balance of the
County Social Services Fund, on December 31 of any given year, should contain a
sufficient balance to satisfy cash flow requirements for the next three months. This will
ensure sufficient local funding to carry counties from January to April when sufficient
property taxes are received to meet local requirements
In addition, the budget must be submitted to the Division of Field Administration for the
statutorily required review that must consider the adequacy of MOE for Child Care and
WORKS, documented in the budget. The Division will also request statements of total
appropriation, local funds appropriated, Social Services Fund Balance, Property
Valuation and Social Services Mill Levy.
The county may use any appropriate budget format that provides sufficient information to
determine in an audit that the county was adequately funded for provision of services
and that state and federal requirements and standards have been met.
Please submit a copy of your preliminary CY 2009 budget to the Field Administration
Division, 1575 Sherman Street, Denver, CO 80203 by October 24, 2008.

5.221.1 Board of County Commissioners Responsible for Appropriating Twenty Percent Share [Rev. eff. 5/1/04]
The board of county commissioners in each county of Colorado or department or agency responsible for administering public assistance, social service sand related activities shall annually appropriate as provided by law the funds necessary to defray the county department of social/human services’ twenty percent share of the overall cost of providing the assistance payments, food assistance (except the value of the food assistance electronic benefits authorized), and social services activities delivered in the county, including the costs allocated to the administration of each, and shall include in the tax levy the funds appropriated for that purpose. Such appropriation shall be based upon the county department of social/human services’ budget prepared by the county department of social/human services’ director.
The Child Support Enforcement Program is exempt from these provisions. The child support incentives earned under this program are to be deposited to the county social/human services fund with the intention of funding the local share of Child Support Enforcement.
5.221.2 Board of County Commissioners Responsible for Availability of Twenty Percent Share [Rev. eff. 5/1/04]
