FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: This budget unit consolidates community
agencies with requests that do not fit under a specific program. The following is the
recommendation for each agency:
Promises for Children. The Board, in May, 2004, made a commitment to fund this
program along with other partners in the community. A request for $5,000 was made.
This is the same as 2012. Recommend approval.
Convention & Visitor Bureau has requested $6,400 this year for visitor guides and
another publication. The increase of $2,256 is to meet their goal of a quarterly
publication for the promotion of events and attractions in Weld County, instead of just the
Summer Happenings publication that only included information from May to June.
2012-3553

COMMUNITY AGENCY GRANTS
(CONTINUED)
1000-90150
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION (Continued):
Convention & Visitor Bureau (Continued): The Recommended Budget only includes
the same funding as 2012, which is $4,144. The majority of funding for this program
comes from the City of Greeley's lodging tax. Businesses in Greeley serving tourist are
the primary benefactors of this program. With the lodging tax revenues being up due to
the high occupancy rates from tourists and oil and gas employees there does not seem
to be justification for the county to increase the funding of this program.
211 Information and Referral has requested $25,000 for the 211 information and
referral system operated by United Way. This is an increase of $3,225 over the 2012
funding level of $21,775. The program provides a valuable service for county residence
with needs. Increase funding is policy issue for the Board.
Audio Information Network of Colorado (formerly Radio Reading Service of the
Rockies) has requested $5,737 to provide radio reading services for the visually
impaired in Weld County. This is the same as 2012. Recommend approval.
Youth and Family Connections (formerly the Juvenile Assessment Center) has
requested the funding level of $27,594 as Weld County's share of law enforcement
• support. This is the same as 2012. Recommend approval.
Collaborative Management Program (formerly the Interagency Oversight Group) was
funded last year, in the amount of $36,000, to cover the contribution to the lOG for
Human Services, Health Department, and District Attorney. Human Services paid the
amount in 2012, so no General Fund dollars are required. To strategically help the TANF
allocation the assessment will be paid by the Social Services Fund in this budget unit for
2013. Recommend approval.
Senior Resource Services has not been funded in the past by General Fund dollars.
The agency provides transportation services to the elderly by using volunteer drivers.
The funds would go towards insurance for volunteer drivers and volunteer coordinators.
There is a growing need for senior transportation and this program is very cost effective.
In mid-2012 the Commissioners funded a pilot program with Area Agency on Aging
program dollars. If the program is to be funded in the future, it is recommended that it
continue to be funded with Area Agency on Aging program dollars and not General Fund
dollars. Funding of this program is a policy for the Board.

COMMUNITY AGENCY GRANTS
(CONTINUED)
1000-90150
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION(Continued):
Homeless Shelters have not been funded in the past by General Fund dollars. Catholic
Charities has requested $35,000 and A Woman's Place has requested $18,000 for
2013. Human Services is doing a $20,000 program to pilot a voucher process through
CSBG. The Board agreed to revisit the $20,000 funding level pending the outcomes of
the voucher process and the availability of more Community Service Block Grant
(CSBG)funds. The shelters want to have funds in grant form, not voucher form.
Human Services also want to explore if the shelters could provide life skills support
services to intervene with families that may fall into child welfare and are residing in
transitional housing or shelter care. These services may be able to be funded through
Core or PSSF funds.
The recommended 2013 budget does not include General Fund dollars for the homeless
shelters. If the homeless shelters are funded it should be by a Human Services
allocation of CSBG dollars as vouchers to clients or other Human Services program
funds. As discussed in the past the Board also encouraged the homeless shelter
agencies to approach the City of Greeley regarding funding, since the vast majority of
the homeless are from Greeley.
• BOARD ACTION: All outside agencies' funding was approved as recommended, except as
follows:
• 211 Information and Referral's amount was increased $3,225 to $25,000.
• Youth and Family Connection's funding of $27,594 was moved to the Social Services
Fund to be funded through the TANF program
• Senior Resource Services request was denied since it is being funded with Area Agency
on Aging funds through June 30, 2013.
• A Woman's Place's request was denied.
• Catholic Charities and Transition House are being funded with Community Service Block
Grant funds through Social Services.

PUBLIC WORKS FUND SUMMARY
• The Public Works Fund records all costs related to Weld County road and bridge construction
and maintenance. This fund is also utilized for allocation of monies to cities and towns for use
in their road and street activities. The resources for 2013 total $65,859,672, which includes a
fund balance of$28,000,000, in addition to the revenue shown in the budget. Property tax is set
at $9,000,000, an increase of $2,012,809. With the increased assessed value from oil and gas
development Weld County has increased the property tax amount dedicated to the Public
Works Fund in order to increase its investment in the road and bridge infrastructure in
accordance with the plan laid out in the Strategic Investment Plan for the Future of Weld
County. Specific ownership tax is estimated to be $6,000,000, down $330,000 from 2012.
Regular HUTF is at $7,740,000 due to people driving less and more fuel efficient vehicles.
However, with the passage of SB09-109, Weld County will receive $1,810,000 from the added
HUTF revenue resulting from this new legislation. Total HUTF will be $9,550,000 down
$300,000 from 2012. Oil and gas revenues are $3,000,000. Permit revenues are budgeted at
$530,000. Motor vehicle registration fees are $330,000 and grazing fees are $90,000.
Federal mineral lease revenues are $1,030,000 due to the creation of the Weld County Federal
Mineral Lease District. The federal mineral lease revenue will flow through the new district and
then Public Works will apply to the district for the funding of projects. In 2013, the district is
funding $1,030,000 in oil and gas haul route projects. The $1,030,000 is budgeted in other
revenues from project reimbursements. PILT is budgeted at $300,000 with the Federal Mineral
Leasing District funding change.
Other revenues from project reimbursements total $3,593,000, which are up $876,000.
Transportation impact fees are budgeted at $1,392,000. Reimbursements for the intersection of
• CR 23/SH 392 project include $921,000 from CDOT, $1,406,472 from NFRMPO, $100,000 from
Severance, and $150,000 from Windsor. There is also an Energy Impact Assistance grant of
$1,000,000 for Phase I of WCR49 and $200,000 for WCR49/22. A HES grant for $610,200 is
funded for the WCR 49/44 intersection project. Severance tax is budgeted at $2,250,000 up
$440,000 over 2012. In accordance with the policy adopted by the Board of County
Commissioners in 2010, the severance tax revenue is budgeted at a five year leveling average
due to the fluctuations of the revenue created by the price and production levels of oil and gas
commodities.
The budgeted appropriations for Public Works in 2013 total $41,793,329 up $9,223,081.
Municipal share back is funded at $1,534,578. Budget reflects a 12 percent increase in health
insurance costs. 2013 salary increases are funds for step increases due employees in 2013
and a 2.0 percent cost of living salary adjustment is included in this budget for a total of
$245,317.
The overall Public Works budget has been impacted $1,525,003 due to the decrease in vehicle
costs. The Other Public Works budget is up $6,119,336 based on the Capital Improvement Plan
(CIP). Project budgets have increased a total of a net $5,905,385 based on the following: An
increase of $2,678,960 based on capital improvement projects for 2013; a reduction of
$1,037,040 in the Haul Route Program (HARP) due to $1,020,000 being moved to Mining for
purchase of gravel materials and $17,040 fora seasonal position; a reduction of$256,075 in the
Strategic Road line item due to anticipated projects for 2013; and a reduction of $215,000 in
Right Of Way Purchases based on 2013 projects. An additional $4,000,000 was added to Other
Purchased Services for Phase I of WCR 49 that will be partially funded by a $1 million Energy
• Impact Assistance grant. $800,000 is included for the construction of CR49/CR44 intersection
with $610,200 funded from a HES grant.
274
Pavement Management is funded at an increased level of $1,102,721, with $226,000 for 12
seasonal positions for a chip and seal crew, $3,100,000 included for asphalt purchases,
• $1,000,000 for slurry seal for subdivision roads, and chip and seal of $1,140,000. In the
Trucking budget there is an increase of $407,437 for additional contract hauling in 2013.
Overtime in the department has been reduced where possible. Mining operations are up
$1,728,459 to fund surface gravel, class 6 materials, and contract crushing of pit materials to
accommodate the gravel road needs and HARP program with the impacts from the oil and gas
development. Seasonal staffing is up $213,951 in order to staff for the 2013 workload. Motor
grader operations are up $269,033 to fund additional seasonal staff ($105,000) and $300,000
for magnesium chloride (MgCl) for dust control with offsetting reductions in vehicle costs. Other
operating budgets for road and bridge maintenance are funded at near the 2012 funding level.
With some operational economies to offset some of the fuel costs the current service level
should be able to be maintained with the funding recommended.
Projects for 2013 include $4,000,000 for Phase I of WCR 49 improvements, which includes the
construction of a bridge over the Cache la Poudre River. An Energy Impact Assistance grant will
fund $1 million of the project. The CR 23 and State Highway 392 construction project
($2,815,000) will be done in partnership with CDOT, Windsor and Severance. Another project is
WCR 55 and State Highway 392 ($620,000). Right-of-way and utility costs include CR 49
($800,000), CR 49/CR44 intersection ($150,000), CR49/CR22 intersection ($100,000), and
CR 5, CR 26 and State Highway 66 ($100,000). Haul Route Projects (HARP) are funded at
$2,962,960. There is another $1,020,000 in Mining for HARP gravel purchases. CR49/CR44
intersection construction is funded at $800,000 with $610,200 funded from a HES grant.
The 2013 Public Works Capital Improvements Plan is available on the county web site at

In accordance with Sections 29-1-701 through 707, C.R.S., as amended, cities or counties of
30,000 persons or more are required to bid projects of over $150,000. Local governments are
required to bid competitively among private contractors for projects using Highway Users Tax
Fund money (state funded projects), and are prohibited from dividing projects into two or more
projects to evade provisions of the act.
"State-funded public project" means any construction, alteration, repair, demolition, or
improvement by any agency of local government of any land, structure, facility, road, highway,
bridge, or other public improvement suitable for and intended for use in the promotion of the
public health, welfare, or safety and any defined maintenance project which is funded in whole,
or in part, from the highway users tax fund and which may be reasonably expected to exceed
$150,000 in the aggregate for any fiscal year.
"Defined maintenance project" means any project that involves a significant reconstruction,
alteration, or improvement of any existing road, highway, bridge, structure, facility, or other
public improvement, including, but not limited to, repairing or seal coating of roads or highways
or major internal or external reconstruction or alteration of existing structures. "Defined
maintenance project" does not include routine maintenance activities such as snow removal,
minor surface repair of roads or highways, cleaning of ditches, regrading of unsurfaced roads,
repainting, replacement of floor coverings, or minor reconstruction or alteration of existing
structures.
Based upon the above definitions, Weld County's Public Works 2013 budget would be allocated
as follows by the above categories:
• TOTAL HUTF STATE LOCAL/OTHER
Bridge Construction $ 3,197,856 $ 0 $ 3,197,856

TOTAL $41.793.329 $ 9.550.000 $32.243.329
Based upon the above allocation, Weld County is not required to competitively bid any service.
However, it is anticipated that Weld County will bid out $3,100,000 in asphalt purchases and
contracts for overlays and reconstruction, and chip and seal of $2,140,000, for a total of
$5,240,000 in bid projects for 2013. A major portion of the $1,150,000 earmarked for Strategic
Roads and $8,660,000 for contracts may also be contracted, which raises the potential bid
project amount to $15,050,000 Maintenance of effort requirement was eliminated by the 1994
State Legislature, effective with the 1995 budget; therefore, it is not demonstrated in this budget

SUMMARY OF CHANGES (Continued): Projects for 2013 include $4,000,000 for Phase I of
WCR 49 improvements, which includes the construction of a bridge over the Cache la Poudre
River. An Energy Impact Assistance grant will fund $1 million of the project. The WCR 23 and
State Highway 392 construction project ($2,815,000) will be done in partnership with CDOT,
Windsor and Severance. Another project is WCR 55 and State Highway 392 ($620,000). Right-
of-way and utility costs include WCR 49 ($800,000), WCR 49/WCR44 intersection ($150,000),
WCR 49/WCR22 intersection ($100,000), and WCR 5, WCR 26 and State Highway 66
($100,000). Haul Route Projects (HARP) are funded at $2,962,960. There is another
$1,020,000 in Mining for HARP gravel purchases. WCR49/WCR 44 intersection construction is
funded at $800,000 with $610,200 funded from a HES grant.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval. Board has
approved the above projects as part of the Five Year Capital Improvements Plan. The increase
for seasonal staffing is justified due to the workload of the projects.
BOARD ACTION: Board increased the funding for the WCR 55 and State Highway 392
intersection project by $220,000. All other items approved as recommended.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Personnel Services increased $147,894 for two PW Service
Workers II positions ($89,831), and one Lead Worker ($58,063) to replace slurry seal with chip
seal program. Supplies increased $150 for outerwear reimbursement for additional employees.
Purchased Services decreased $302,628 due to decrease in the Vehicle Expense line item.
Final budget adjustments include an increase in salaries of$31,305.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval. The cost analysis
done in June comparing in-house chip seal using county forces versus contracted slurry seal
demonstrated it is more cost effective to do the chip seal in-house by adding the three additional
staff. The Board has concurred with the study results and the recommendation to add three
positions in this budget.
BOARD ACTION: The Board added $226,000 in the final budget to fund twelve (12) seasonal
positions for six months in 2013 for a chip and seal crew. In addition $1,000,000 was added for
slurry/sand seal materials for subdivision roads. All other items approved as recommended.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: The resources for 2013 total $65,859,672, which includes a fund
balance of $28,000,000, in addition to the revenue shown in the budget. Property tax is set at
$9,000,000. Specific ownership tax is estimated to be $6,000,000, down $330,000 from 2012.
Regular HUTF is at $7,740,000 due to people driving less and more fuel efficient vehicles.
However, with the passage of SB09-109, Weld County will receive $1,810,000 from the added
• HUTF revenue resulting from this new legislation. Total HUTF will be $9,550,000 down
$300,000 from 2012. Permit revenues are budgeted at $530,000. Motor vehicle registration fees
are $330,000 and grazing fees are $90,000. Oil and gas revenues are $3,000,000.
Federal mineral lease revenues are $1,030,000 due to the creation of the Weld County Federal
Mineral Lease District. The federal mineral lease revenue will flow through the new district and
then Public Works will apply to the district for the funding of projects. In 2013, the district is
funding $1,030,000 in oil and gas haul route projects. The $1,030,000 is budgeted in other
revenues from project reimbursements. PILT is budgeted at $300,000 with the Federal Mineral
Leasing District funding change.
Other revenues from project reimbursements total $3,593,000, which are up $876,000.
Transportation impact fees are budgeted at $1,392,000. Reimbursements for the intersection of
CR 23/SH 392 project include $921,000 from CDOT, $1,406,472 from NFRMPO, $100,000 from
Severance, and $150,000 from Windsor. There is also an Energy Impact Assistance grant of
$1,000,000 for Phase I of WCR49 and $200,000 for WCR49/22. A HES grant for $610,200 is
funded for the WCR 49/44 intersection project. Severance tax is budgeted at $2,250,000 up
$440,000 over 2012. In accordance with the policy adopted by the Board of County
Commissioners in 2010, the severance tax revenue is budgeted at a five year leveling average
due to the fluctuations of the revenue created by the price and production levels of oil and gas
commodities.

SOCIAL SERVICES FUND SUMMARY
• Weld County Department of Human Services continues to face challenges created by the
economic downturn, the uncertainties of continued adequate funding for programs, and the
reporting requirements associated with the programs we administer.
The total Social Services Fund budget is $28,997,045. The programs are funded by property
tax of$6,500,000, state and federal funds of$19,866,602, and the potential use of fund balance
to cover unanticipated cost overruns. The Department continues to pursue innovative programs
to avoid, or reduce the duration of, clients' need for services. While this may, in some cases,
drive greater costs in the current year, it is anticipated that these measures will enable the
Department to avoid costs in future years.
Food Assistance caseloads have been increasing substantially for several years. During 2011,
they increased by nearly 15% over 2010 levels. However, they appear to have reached a
plateau during the first few months of 2012. Other assistance programs administered by the
Department, such as LEAP, Aid to the Needy-Disabled, Old Age Pension, and Child Care have
been following a similar trend. Medicaid caseloads continue to grow as efforts at the Federal
and State level emphasize the increase of access to these services. As Colorado implements
Health Care Reform legislation, the Department's role in administering eligibility determination to
the program could change, significantly.
CBMS continues to impact the productivity of staff and create delays in the delivery of payments
and benefits for Food Assistance, Medicaid, Colorado Works, and State-Only Programs. Many
of the inefficiencies creating these delays are being resolved. However, the inefficiencies that
remain continue to impact the time required to process cases and the number of cases in
• pending status. The State Fiscal Year 2012-13 Long Appropriation Bill includes significant
funding to modify the structure of the CBMS system. Weld County remains hopeful that these
modifications will rectify some of the issues created by the system. In the meantime, we have
identified changes to our internal practices that have enabled us to deliver services in more
timely and accurate ways, and will continue to identify practice and policy changes that will
further this effort.
The settlement agreement of a lawsuit, impacting all counties in Colorado, identifies goals that
counties must meet in processing applications for assistance through the CBMS system in a
timely manner. Weld County is achieving the goals set forth in that agreement and continually
surpasses the state-wide average for timeliness. While our ultimate goal, of course, is to
process 100% of applications timely, our average processing time has improved by 15% over
the past year, and now exceeds 90%.
For the first time in several years, Weld County will be starting the Fiscal Year with a small
amount of TANF County Reserve, which will serve to insulate us, to some extent, from the
requirement to use county-only funds in covering Child Welfare, Child Care, and Colorado
Works over-expenditures. The requirements of Senate Bill 08-177 have increased the
percentage of our Colorado Works allocation that is expended on Basic Cash Assistance. We
are advocating for rule and legislative changes that will enable us to better manage our
allocation and the appropriate delivery of services to clients.
Quality day care, at an affordable cost, will continue to be a challenge for working families to
obtain. The Department continues to develop methods of providing appropriate reimbursement
• to providers, being careful to not monopolize the market. The upgraded version of the CHATS
system continues to provide challenges for program and fiscal staff. Weld County has worked
closely with providers to encourage practices that result in accurate and timely reimbursement
304
• for services and provide reliable information concerning the need for services. Expenditures for
services have declined, significantly, in many counties within the State. Weld County's
expenditures have remained fairly constant, possibly due to the fact that many of the program
integrity measures that the new system has brought about were already being practiced in Weld
County, prior to the implementation of the new system.
Weld County's efforts toward early intervention in Child Welfare involvements is beginning to
produce positive outcomes, both in our outcome tracking measures and in our ability to control
expenditures. Our caseworkers are regularly recognized for the accuracy and thoroughness of
their case files. Although referrals to the Department continue to increase by approximately
3.3% per year, the number of cases that ultimately result in intrusive and costly out-of-home
placements has decreased by 7.5% over the past two years, as more families are diverted to
treatment and training services in an effort to keep them intact. The Child Welfare Allocations
Committee voted to restore the allocation methodology that was in place prior to 2008 and to
establish an allocation method for Core Services (Family Preservation) funding for the first time
since its inception. These changes will result in an approximate increase to Weld County's
allocations of $3 million, which will enable us to better utilize the resources available to provide
these services to the citizens of Weld County.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Caseloads in the Food Assistance program are finally beginning to
level off, although they are doing so at a volume 70% higher than they were in 2009. Weld
County has greatly increased its timeliness in processing applications for assistance. CBMS
continues to be a significant barrier to this effort, but our staff has taken the initiative to re-align
its processes and devote extra efforts to meeting required guidelines. We remain hopeful that
the State Legislature's appropriation to the Governor's Office of Information Technology will
enable them to repair the CBMS system, so that it can be used efficiently.

COUNTY ADMINISTRATION

2100-42110
BOARD ACTION:The Board adopted the policy effective July 1, 2012, that the Social Services
Fund will be charged the full costs of the indirect costs from the Countywide Cost Plan done
annually. Under federal regulations (OMB A-87) the amount charged per the 2011 Cost Plan for
2013 will be $1,552,763. The revenue amounting to 33% of cost allocation ($512,412) from the
federal government previously deposited in the General Fund will be deposited in the Social
Services Fund. The impact will be a net reduction in the Social Services Fund's fund balance of
$1,040,351 in the 2013 budget. All other items approved as recommended.
At a work session on October 1, 2012, the Board approved the hiring of four welfare fraud
clerical positions ($157,022) temporarily for one year to catch up on the backlog of cases.
Federal pass-through revenue amounting to 33% of the cost will be received in the amount of
$44,610. The program may also bring in additional recovery incentive dollars, but the amount is
unpredictable and therefore not budgeted.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Property tax is budgeted at $6,500,000 for 2013. The difference is
a combination of special revenue from various department programs. The Child Support TANF-
Retained Incentive is estimated at $194,332. The TANF Adjustment is $702,389. Incentives
earned as the result of claims collections for Food Assistance, Medicaid, TANF, and State-Only
Programs are estimated to be $185,442. Counties will not receive Work Participation bonus
funds during 2013, but may, instead, receive a reduction to the Actual Spending MOE, which
may increase the TANF Adjustment, if it is received.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: For the first time in several years, Weld County will be starting the
Fiscal Year with a small amount of TANF County Reserve, which will serve to insulate us, to
some extent, from the requirement to use county-only funds in covering Child Welfare, Child
Care, and Colorado Works over-expenditures. The requirements of Senate Bill 08-177 have
increased the percentage of our Colorado Works allocation that is expended on Basic Cash
Assistance from 26% in 2009 to 50% in 2010 to 56% in 2011 and to 67% in 2012. This demand
on the "entitlement" side of Colorado Works greatly limits our ability to use the funds for the
intended purposes of assisting clients in returning to self-sufficiency.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval.
• BOARD ACTION: Approved as recommended. The Board also approved funding $27,594 for
the Youth and Family Connection program through TANF funds. This program was previously

challenges for program and fiscal staff. Weld County has worked closely with providers to
encourage practices that result in accurate and timely reimbursement for services and provide
reliable information concerning the need for services. Expenditures for services have declined,
significantly, in many counties within the State. Weld County's expenditures have remained
fairly constant, possibly due to the fact that many of the program integrity measures that the
new system has brought about were already being practiced in Weld County, prior to the
implementation of the new system.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Weld County's efforts toward early intervention in Child Welfare
involvements is beginning to produce positive outcomes, both in our outcome tracking
measures and in our ability to control expenditures. Our caseworkers are regularly recognized
for the accuracy and thoroughness of their case files. Although referrals to the Department
continue to increase by approximately 3.3% per year, the number of cases that ultimately result
in intrusive and costly out-of-home placements has decreased by 7.5% over the past two years,
as more families are diverted to treatment and training services in an effort to keep them intact.
The Child Welfare Allocations Committee voted to restore the allocation methodology that was
in place prior to 2008 and to establish an allocation method for Core Services (Family
Preservation) funding for the first time since its inception. These changes will result in an
approximate increase to Weld County's allocations of $3 million, which will enable us to better
utilize the resources available to provide these services to the citizens of Weld County.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Expenditures for dental, vision, prescriptions, and in-kind services
have remained fairly stable over the last few years. The State budget problems have created a
stronger need for General Administrative funds. The reimbursement shown will come from the
CDHS Office of Behavioral Health for the Colorado Partnership for Success Grant and from the
Dept of Local Affairs for the Community Services Block Grant (CSBG). Below is a breakdown of
the amounts requested for the different categories under General Assistance:
Co Partnership for Success $ 400,000

PUBLIC HEALTH FUND SUMMARY
The Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment is part of a local system that
focuses on the following:
• Preventing epidemics and the spread of
disease
• Protecting against environmental hazards
• Preventing injuries
• Promoting and encouraging healthy behaviors
• Responding to disasters and assisting
communities in recovery ,,*� �� ��:•�
• Assuring the quality and accessibility of health �+

Carr t:rn`x�v.rr
Public health is the science and art of preventing �,�
disease, prolonging life and promoting health
through the organized efforts and informed choices
of society, organizations — public and private, Iv"l°r
N.
Policies
communities and individuals. In partnership with d
the communities we serve, the health department
preserves, promotes and protects the health and _ � *
environment of the residents of Weld County.
The annual budget proposal is prepared within the financial targets established by the Board of
County Commissioners. Resources are allocated within the Department's five divisions to
• support the mission of preventing disease, prolonging life and promoting health through a focus
on the ten essential elements of public health (represented in the diagram above.)
The Department's net county cost budget target for FY 2013 was established at $3,681,779.
This target projected cost-of-living increases in personnel costs for 2013 within parameters set
by the Board. The Department budget submission is actually $20,306 under the budget target.
The department accomplished this through continuous fiscal diligence and commitment to the
county principal of being efficient financial stewards of taxpayers' trust and resources.
Only three items are noteworthy given the Department's request coming in under target: (1) The
Division of Environmental Health Services received mid-year approval in 2012 for 1.0 FTE
increase in Environmental Health Specialist staff. This additional FTE is included in the
proposed 2013 budget. (2) The Division of Health Communication, Education and Planning
submitted, with Board approval, a grant application for Tobacco Education and Prevention
programming. This grant, if funded, would support the recreation of 2.0 FTE of tobacco
education specialists in the Division. The additional FTEs and projected grant revenue to
support these positions are incorporated in the budget submission. (3) Demand for nutritional
counseling continues to grow with the Department's focused work on obesity prevention. The
Division of Health Communication, Education and Planning requested increasing the nutritionist
FTE by 0.25. If approved, the Department would have 0.5 FTE committed to nutritional
counseling services. This FTE request is also incorporated into the FY 2013 budget submission.

BUDGET UNIT REQUEST SUMMARY

BUDGET UNIT TITLE AND NUMBER: Administration Services - - 2500-41100
DEPARTMENT DESCRIPTION: Overall administration of Department of Public Health and
Environment, including personnel, fiscal management, data and records management,
procurement and facilities management. The Executive Director is the official registrar of vital
statistics for Weld County. Records of deaths that occurred in Weld County are kept and

Budgeted Positions 8.0 8.0 8.0 8.0
SUMMARY OF CHANGES: There is a $14,903 increase in Personnel Services that is the
result of the increased costs of health insurance and an increase in salaries and benefits due to
step increases and the proposed 2.0% cost of living adjustments in 2013. No other significant
changes in expenditures.
The estimated $7,000 overall decrease in revenue is in part an expectation of approximately
$3,000 in increased revenue from birth and death certificates in the Vital Statistics division and a
decrease of $10,000 in grant revenue due to the anticipated discontinuation of the ARRA
funded pilot program Reimbursement Immunization Opportunity (RIZO) grant in 2013.
Administration activities in 2012 moved the Health Department closer to the RIZO goal of
helping county governments develop and implement methods of billing third party payors for
immunizations obtained by public health services clients. For 2013, the focus of RIZO is shifting
toward providing funding to counties to purchase relevant equipment and software, and
• technical assistance for county governments to contract with insurance companies. Weld
County has progressed beyond this point therefore this revenue source is not relevant to Weld
County's operations any longer.

HUMAN SERVICES FUND SUMMARY
• The Human Services Fund is funded at $7,933,047 for 2013, which is up $799,613 or 11.21
percent, from the previous year, primarily in the area of Jobs programs ($568,160). Community
Services Block Grant is up $123,082. Area Agency on Aging programs are down slightly by
$2,697. Senior Nutrition is up $123,419 nearly 30 percent. Other programs are stable with little
change.
Being totally reliant upon state and federal funding sources, Human Services continues to
operate in an environment of uncertainty. The Human Services Fund budget has been
constructed based upon the best available information on the funding levels. It is very likely that
many of the amounts will be changed between now and the actual execution of the 2013
budget. As fiscal pressures are dealt with, at the Federal and State levels, changes could be
forthcoming that will affect this funding.
The primary programs of Human Services are associated with the Workforce Investment Act
(WIA) funded under the Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. This
program is anticipating $3,298,500 for 2013. Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF)
is funded at $652,000 primarily for training of TANF clients. In addition, the Job Service contract
will be $895,000 up $232,520. Funding for this program appears to be returning to pre-ARRA
levels, and should remain fairly constant, depending on budget control measures enacted at the
Federal level.
The Human Services Fund is totally funded through state and federal programs, with the
exception of the 25 percent local match for the Area Agency on Aging program, which amounts
• to $12,351.
Other programs of the Human Services Fund remain relatively stable programmatically with the
following 2013 funding levels:
Area Agency on Aging $ 2,265,467
Senior Nutrition $ 581,168
CSBG $ 240,912
In the above programs, Weld County must continue to be responsive and reactive to federal and
state administrative and budget changes in 2013.

• Special Revenue Funds are established to account for taxes or other earmarked revenue of the
county which finance specified activities as required by law or administrative action.
CONTINGENCY FUND:
The Contingency Fund is funded at the level of$12,000,000 with property tax. A beginning fund
balance of $28,000,000 is anticipated. An ending fund balance of $40,000,000 is projected,
assuming no contingency funds are needed in 2013. The fund balance will serve as a
stabilization reserve for fluctuating revenues due to Weld County's heavy dependency on oil
and gas assessed values that can fluctuate dramatically from year to year due to production
levels and price changes. Besides serving as a general contingency reserve, the fund is
available to mitigate impacts from the oil and gas industry, such as unanticipated road and
bridge heavy hauling impacts.
SOLID WASTE FUND:
The Solid Waste Fund is funded at the anticipated revenue level of fees at $730,000. There is
an anticipated beginning fund balance of $700,000. The Department of Public Health and
Environment costs will be $373,127 for the Household Hazardous Waste Program; $134,782 is
funded for solid waste inspections and monitoring by the Health Department; $40,000 for
community cleanups; and $97,091 to fund the roadside trash pickup program with Useful Public
Service clients. $85,000 is funded by a transfer to the Sheriff's Office to support code
• enforcement for illegal dumping.
CONSERVATION TRUST FUND:
The Conservation Trust Fund is budgeted at $406,647 based upon the anticipated operating
costs for 2013. The budget reflects funding of Island Grove Park only.
EMERGENCY RESERVE FUND:
The Emergency Reserve Fund was established per Amendment One (TABOR), passed
November 3, 1992. The amendment requires that an emergency reserve be created to be used
for declared emergencies only. It also requires each local government to reserve one percent
or more for 1993, two percent or more for 1994, and three percent or more for all later years of
the fiscal year spending, excluding bonded debt service. Caused reserves apply to the next
year's reserve. With the adoption of the new accounting rules under GASB 54 the three-percent
TABOR emergency reserve required by Article X, Section 20(5) of the Colorado Constitution
shall be a restricted fund balance in the General Fund in an amount equal to six-million dollars
or three-percent of the TABOR revenue limit, whichever is greater. This Emergency Reserve
Fund will no longer be used to budget or account for the TABOR emergency reserve.

• SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Revenue from the Colorado Lottery is being projected at $376,000
and $3,500 from interest earnings. For 2013, the budget for the county buildings at Island Grove
Park is proposed at $509,147. This represents an increase from the 2012 budget of $10,265
or 2.06 percent. Revenue from rents and facility use fees for 2013 is estimated at $102,500
which is a decrease of $10,000 from 2012. The county payment for 2013 is proposed at
$406,647 which is an increase of $30,278 from the 2012 payment of $379,484, an increase of
8.04 percent. The increase in the 2013 county payment reflects not only the increase in the
2013 budget but also the increase in salaries granted in 2012 after the county payment had
been established of $10,013. When the full cost of 2012 is compared to 2013 the increase is
$20,265 or 5.3%. No funds are allocated for capital improvements to the buildings. Since 2002,
the Missile Site Park has been funded in the General Fund.

• SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Due to the annexation of the Erie Laidlaw Landfill, the revenue
from that site (over $700,000 annually), has not been received since 2007. Therefore, the
revenue estimate is $730,000. The Department of Public Health and Environment costs for the
Household Hazardous Waste program will be $373,127. $40,000 is budgeted for community
clean-ups, and $97,091 to fund the roadside trash pick-up program with Useful Public Service
clients. $134,782 is funded for solid waste inspections and monitoring by the Health
Department. Since the landfill sites no longer impact county roads due to being located off of
state highways, no funds are provided for road projects to mitigate landfill impacts.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval. There are no
undesignated funds in the 2013 budget to mitigate impacts of landfills, such as road access,
cleanups, and transfer stations. A $700,000 fund balance also exists for the same needs, if
required.
As indicated above, revenues have been held conservative. Due to the annexation of the
second Erie landfill, the County has lost the revenue from that site. Erie will pay approximately
$13,000 for Health Department inspections of the landfill in Erie and for costs to offset the
receiving of household hazardous wastes from Erie residents. Revenue in 2010 was increased
on a one-time basis due to an EPA clean-up near the Wyoming border hauling materials to the
Ault landfill. Revenues from the one-time EPA clean-up were close to $450,000. In 2011 and
2012 revenues are up some due to special waste from oil and gas activity that cannot be
counting on for 2013, according to the landfill operators. In 2013, the revenue will return to a
more normal level of$730,000.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES FUND SUMMARY
• The Capital Expenditures Fund was established to budget the financial resources used for the
acquisition or improvement of capital facilities of the county. A detailed Long Range Capital
Plan for 2013-2017 is presented in this section and relates to the specifics of the 2013 capital
project budget.
The Capital Expenditures Fund accounts for various capital improvement projects for county
buildings. The 2013 program is funded at $7,600,000, with $7,200,000 from property tax,
$100,000 from capital expansion fees, and $300,000 from interest. Anticipated projects include
$800,000 for an equipment storage facility for Public Works, and $788,000 for special projects.
A carry-over beginning fund balance of $4,340,000 is anticipated, and $10,352,000 ending
reserve fund balance for the future jail expansion ($7,402,000), Communications System
reserve ($950,000), and Downtown Greeley land reserve ($2,000,000) is anticipated at the end
of 2013.
Capital projects impacting the 2013 and future years' operational costs include the additional jail
space planned for construction in 2017 will impact the operational budget by $1,210,000 in
2017, $770,000 in 2019, and $1,100,000 in 2021. Special projects and Public Works facility
projects are primarily cosmetic enhancements to buildings that will not impact operating costs,
but will improve the appearance and functionality of the buildings involved.

FIVE YEAR PLAN
2013 - 2017
INTRODUCTION:
Section 14-3 of the Weld County Home Rule Charter provides:
"The Board may require that the Director of Finance and Administration submit,
at the time of submission of the annual budget, a five-year capital improvements
program and budget. Such program shall include recommended projects,
construction schedule, estimate of cost, anticipated revenue sources, methods of
financing, and such other information as may be required."
This five-year plan projects capital improvements for 2013 - 2017.
The recommended program for capital construction is intended as a guideline to be adjusted by
the Board of County Commissioners on an annual basis. It represents flexible goals for
organizing solutions to county program needs, and it is intended to provide the Board of County
Commissioners with the perspective for making fiscal policy decisions. Annual modifications in
the plan will reflect necessary adjustments and priorities, changes in programs, and
readjustments of other county fiscal requirements.
• This report has four (4) sections:

and the alternatives available for financing the remainder of the capital projects program. The
2013 - 2017 five-year plan section provides a list of recommended projects and the time
schedule for the next five fiscal years. Additionally, it provides justification for the
recommendation and attempts to enumerate problems and recommended solutions for the
capital improvements program over the next five years. The project section describes each
recommended project, and provides information on the existing situation, the proposed solution,
and the financing plan for each project.
The last section of the report provides a recommended 2013 budget for the capital construction
program. It provides specific detail regarding each recommended project and the impact on the
2013 county budget.

FINANCING ALTERNATIVES
420
• FINANCING
Overview:
There are a number of ways to finance capital improvement projects. Some of the most
common methods are:
1. Pay as you go:
Pay as you go is a method of financing capital projects with current revenues --
paying cash instead of borrowing against future revenues. Pay as you go has
several advantages. First, it saves interest cost. Second, pay as you go protects
borrowing capacity for unforeseen major outlays that are beyond any current
year's capacity. Third, when coupled with regular, steady completion of capital
improvements and good documentation and publicity, pay as you go fosters
favorable bond ratings when long term financing is undertaken. Finally, the
technique avoids the inconvenience and considerable cost associated with
marketing of bond issues, advisors, counsel, printing, etc.
However, there are practical and theoretical disadvantages to a pay as you go
policy. First, pay as you go puts a heavy burden on the project year. Second, it
creates awkward fluctuating expenditure cycles which do not occur with extended
financing. Third, a long life asset should be paid for by its users throughout its
• normal life rather than all at once by those who may not have the use of it for the
full term. Finally, when inflation is driving up construction costs, it may be
cheaper to borrow and pay today's prices rather than wait and pay tomorrow's.
2. All borrowing policy:
An all borrowing policy or a substantial reliance on debt financing is another
approach. The annual available resources could be used entirely for debt
service with the size of the annual resources setting the limit on the amount that
could be borrowed.
3. Capital reserve:
A capital reserve plan is an approach where the annual resources available could
be accumulated in one or more capital reserve funds, the amounts invested, and
when any funds become adequate to pay for a proposed project, the fund could
be expended. This is a good approach when a county has a capital requirement
which can wait. Accumulation of the necessary capital funds over a period of
time is a feasible approach, assuming a relatively stable construction dollar.
HB 82-1111, passed in 1982, specifically provides for a capital improvements
trust fund for capital reserves.
•
421
• 4. Partial pay as you go policy:
A partial pay as you go policy is a common approach. Some of the annual
resources would be used to finance capital improvements directly, and the
remainder would go for supporting a debt program. Even if a local government
pursues a borrowing policy, an initial down payment out of current revenues is a
possibility. A customary five to ten percent down is a limited pay as you go
policy, and assures that the voters authorizing the approval will make a cash
contribution so all of the burden will not be postponed.
5. Joint financing:
An ever increasing number of cities and counties are benefitting from joint
development of a project. The construction of a city/county office building and
recreational areas are examples. This avenue of funding and planning capital
projects normally is advantageous to both jurisdictions.
6. Lease/Purchase:
Local governments can utilize lease/purchase methods for needed public works
projects by having it constructed by a private company or authority. The facility is
then leased by the jurisdiction on an annual or a monthly rental. At the end of the
lease period, the title to the facility can be conveyed to the jurisdiction without
any future payments. The rental over the years will have paid the total original
cost plus interest. This method has been used successfully in a number of
jurisdictions. The utilization of a building authority would fall under this category
of financing.
• Numerous considerations are involved in the selection of the foregoing approaches, or some
combination thereof:
1. Political realities may preclude utilization of one or more of the above
alternatives. For example, the passage of general obligation bonds as a debt
financing mechanism has not met recent success at the polling places in most
jurisdictions.
2. The pay as you go concept has three distinct advantages.
A. It provides great flexibility to the county for future periods of economic
recession or depression but does not accumulate large fixed-charge
costs.
B. It avoids the payment of interest charges.
C. It imposes upon public officials the full political responsibility for levy of
the taxes necessary to pay the local share of such projects.
3. The debt financing approach has the advantage of spreading the cost over a
generation of current users of public facilities, thereby imposing upon each a
significant portion of the cost of each project.
• 4. In an inflationary period, one must take into account the extent to which
prepayment for capital outlay is warranted, when the opportunity for repayment of
the principal and interest in dollars that are less expensive can be arranged.
422
5. During periods of rapid rise in costs, the time delay necessary to
• accumulate down payments or full pay as you go resources invites higher costs
which may wipe out most, if not all, of the advantages of non-payment of interest.
In the five-year capital projects plan, a combination of funding methods will be recommended to
finance capital construction in an attempt to balance the economy of a payment in full program
with the fairness of sharing the burden among present and future taxpayers.
This recommended financial program reflects consideration of many factors, including the
availability of cash, anticipated interest rates at the time of construction, and projected
inflationary cost increases that would result from project delays.

423
DEBT FINANCING
•
Before discussing specific types of borrowing, it is appropriate to review some of the basic
constitutional statutory provisions which generally are applicable to debt financing.
Article XI, Section 6, of the Colorado Constitution, provides that no debt may be created by a
political subdivision of the state, unless the question of incurring such debt has been approved
by a majority of the qualified electorate voting. Any obligation paid, or contracted to be paid, out
of a fund that is a product of a tax levy is a debt within the means of the Constitution (Trinidad
vs. Haxby, 136 Colorado 168, 315 p 2d 204 -- 1957).
In addition to voter approval, Article XI, Section 6, requires the debt be incurred by adoption of a
legislative measure which is irrevocable until the indebtedness is fully paid or discharged. The
ordinance must:
1. Set forth the purpose for which the bond proceeds will be applied, and
2. Provide for the levy of the tax which, together with such other revenues as may
be pledged, will be sufficient to pay the principal and interest of the debt.
The Constitution delegates to the Legislature the duty to establish statutory limitations on the
incurrence of debt. The total amount of debt which a county may incur may not exceed three
percent (3%) of the assessed value in the county, which is over $140 million dollars in Weld
County.
• Section 4 of Article X, Section 20 (TABOR Amendment), requires voter approval for any form of
multi-year debt. It states that an election is required: "Except for the refinancing of district
bonded debt at a lower interest rate or adding new employees to existing district pension plans,
creation of any multiple-fiscal year direct or indirect district debt or other financial obligation
whatsoever without adequate present cash reserves pledged irrevocable and held for payments
in all future fiscal years."
In addition to the state statute, Section 14-6 of the Weld County Home Rule Charter specifies:
"The incurring of indebtedness by the county and the issuance of evidences of
such indebtedness shall be authorized, made and executed in accordance with
the laws of the state, including the borrowing of money to fund county projects,
the pledging of project revenues and repayment thereof, and the issuance of
revenue warrants, or revenue bonds, or other forms of evidence of such
obligations."
Before discussing specific types of bonds, it is appropriate to review some of the general
characteristics of bonds. Bonds mature serially, that is, a portion of the principal is retired over
the entire term of the bond issue. Interest on municipal bonds is free from Federal Income Tax
which is an important feature to prospective purchasers. The term or the length of time to
maturity of municipal bonds can vary considerably. Generally, the last maturing bond comes
due ten to thirty years from the date of issue. Normally, the longer the maturity of the bonds, the
higher the yields or return on investment is demanded by the market price. Thus, a bond issue
• that runs thirty years will pay a higher net effective interest rate than a bond issue that runs
twenty years.
424
General Obligation Bonds:
• General obligation bonds are secured by a pledge of the full faith, credit and taxing power of the
county. The county is obligated to levy sufficient taxes each year to pay the principal and
interest of the bond issue. Consequently, general obligation bonds are a debt subject to the
constitutional and statutory provisions discussed earlier. Because the issue of general
obligation bond pledges its full faith and credit and agrees to levy the ad valorem taxes
necessary to repay the principal and interest of the bond, it is generally agreed to be a more
secure investment than other types of bonds. Thus, the major advantage of general obligation
financing is the low rate of interest as compared to the interest of other types of bonds. The law
permits general obligation bonds to have a thirty-year term; however, general obligation bond
issues usually have terms of twenty years or less.
General obligation bonds, in addition to being secured by full faith and credit of the issuer, may
provide additional security by pledging certain available revenues.
The major disadvantage of general obligation bonds is the fact that it does require voter
approval prior to issuance. Voter resistance to increased taxes may prevent a successful bond
election.
Revenue Bonds:
Revenue bonds are not a debt in the constitutional sense. They are secured by the revenue
derived from the project to be constructed, not by pledge of the full faith, credit, and taxing
authority of the county. Projects typically financed by revenue bonds include airports, stadiums,
• and park facilities. Under the TABOR Amendment, revenue bonds can only be used for
enterprise funds and operations.
Although it may seem possible to pledge any non-tax revenues for payment of revenue bonds,
there should be a relationship between the type of revenue pledged for payment of the bonds
and the project to be financed. Although revenue bonds need not comply with the constitutional
statutory provisions generally applicable to a debt, there are several statutory provisions which
may affect the issuance of certain types of revenue bonds and the statutes should be consulted
for specific provisions regarding the issue of revenue bonds if this method is considered.
Revenue bonds are considered to be less secure than general obligation bonds because of the
inability of the issuer to levy taxes to assure the payment of principal and interest. Thus, there
is normally a higher interest rate on revenue bonds. The term of revenue bonds is often beyond
twenty years, frequently as long as thirty years.
The concept of issuing revenue bonds is based on the theory that certain projects which benefit
only certain individuals should be self-supporting and should be paid for by the user of that
project rather than the populace as a whole. Thus, airport revenue bonds are paid for by air
travelers and airlines and parking revenue bonds are paid for by users, etc.
In order for a county to issue a revenue bond, the system which generates the revenues to
repay the principal and interest of the bond must:
1. Have a good operating history documented by audited figures.
• 2. Reflect good debt service coverage through use of a feasibility study
completed by a recognized expert in the field.
In analyzing a revenue bond issue for underwriting, an investment banker will look not only at
425
operating statistics and coverages, but also at more basic elements, such as the necessity of
the service, control over competition, and delinquency procedures. Revenue bonds are
becoming more popular because they do not require voter approval and do not apply in
• statutory debt limits.
Leases:
A less traditional method of financing county facilities is a lease arrangement. A lease is
executed with the county, which gives the county the option to purchase the equipment or
facility during the term of the lease. All or part of the lease payments may be applied to the
purchase prices.
A bona fide lease option agreement is not a debt; however, an installment purchase program is
a debt. A bona fide lease/option agreement is characterized by two factors:
1. Annual rental payments with automatic renewal of the lease unless
terminated by either party, and
2. No obligation on the part of the local government to purchase the property
if the lease is terminated.
Also, some court cases indicate the annual rental must be paid from non-property tax revenues
to avoid the lease being considered a general obligation. Upon exercise of the option, the local
government obtains full legal title to the property. Leases of this nature are distinctively different
from more conventional means of financing. Of primary importance is the security which
underlies the lease period. It is not a promise to levy taxes or a pledge of revenues from the
system. Rather, it is usually a promise to pay only one year at a time, with an implied intention
• to continue payment until ownership is transferred. As ultimate security, the holder of the lease
may look to the asset which is being leased in the event of a default.
There is little statutory or judicial guidance in the area of leases of this type, and the obligation
to continue lease payments until title transfers is a moral, rather than a legal obligation. As a
consequence, the underwriting or placement of a lease is more difficult than the underwriting of
conventional bonds. The term of the leases generally are short, usually from seven to ten
years. Because the security underlying the lease is not good compared with conventional
financing, interest rates on leases are higher.
•
426
Building Authority:
A building authority is a non-profit corporation which generally is formed at the request of the
• governing body of the county or local jurisdiction, which also appoints the Board of Directors of
the corporation. Weld County created such an authority in 1987, named the Weld County
Finance Corporation. The directors are the Director of Finance and Administration, County
Attorney, and Director of Public Works, each appointed for ten-year terms.
The building authority issues its own bonds to finance a facility. To achieve the same lower
interest rates that traditional municipal bonds enjoy, the building authority must obtain a ruling
from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that the interest on the authority's bonds is exempt
from Federal Income Tax. Such an exemption is granted if the IRS finds the authority's bonds
are issued on behalf of a political subdivision, which is determined based upon the following
factors as detailed in IRS Revenue Ruling 63-20.
1. The authority engages in activities which are essentially public in nature.
2. The corporation is not organized for profit.
3. The corporate income does not inure to the benefit of any private person.
4. The political subdivision has a beneficial interest in the corporation, while the
indebtedness is outstanding, and it obtains full legal title to the property on the
retirement of the debt.
5. The corporation has been approved by the political subdivision which has
approved the specific obligation of the corporation.
• Like municipal bonds, bonds issued by a corporation usually are subject to registration and
other requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Security Exchange Act of 1934. After
receiving a favorable ruling from the IRS, a "no action" letter should be secured from the
Security and Exchange Commission, exempting the authority's bonds from these requirements.
The authority then issues bonds pledging the annual rental payments as security. After
issuance of bonds and construction of the facilities, the authority leases the facilities to the
county. Again, this must be a bona fide lease and possess all the elements discussed under
Lease/Purchase.
The bonds of a building authority are similar to municipal leases in the manner in which they are
viewed by investors. As with a simple municipal lease, building authority bonds are less secure
than general obligation or revenue bonds. As a result, bonds issued through a building authority
bear higher interest than more secure issues.
Certificates of Participation (COP) may be issued in the same manner as bonds. As a practical
matter the COP is the same as a bond, except from a legal point of view, the COP is evidencing
assignment of proportionate undivided interests in rights to receive certain revenues in the form
of a lease or rental amount for the purpose of providing funding for capital improvements. The
lease and COP do not constitute a general obligation or other indebtedness of the county within
the meaning of any constitutional, statutory or home rule charter debt limitation. The lease is a
year-to-year obligation.
The use of Certificates of Participation (COP) has been the only debt vehicle Weld County has
• ever used in the implementation of its debt policy options. The only COP issued by Weld
County was done in 1997, and was paid off August 1, 2007. No outstanding debt exists for
Weld County.
427
BUILDING AUTHORITY FINANCE
• The Philosophy:
Tax-exempt financing is available through a building authority with the issuance of bonds when
the facilities financed are for public purposes and the benefit is to the sponsoring public entity.
The Building Authority:
A building authority is a Colorado non-profit corporation created by the county itself. The county
adopts a resolution calling for the creation of the Building Authority and directing counsel to
draw articles of incorporation and by-laws in compliance with Colorado Statutes. A board of
directors is formed. The board may consist of County Commissioners or administrative
personnel or individuals not associated with any public entity. The Weld County Finance
Corporation, created in 1987, consists of the Director of Finance and Administration, County
Attorney, and Director of Public Works as directors.
Tax-Exemption of Interest:
Once the non-profit corporation is created, the tax-exempt nature of interest paid on the
corporation's bonds must be assured. A revenue ruling is requested from the Internal Revenue
Service on the non-profit status of the corporation pursuant to Internal Revenue Code, 103(a) 1
and Revenue Ruling 63-20, and on the tax-exempt status of interest paid.
• Such an application involves considerable work and a detailed analysis of the situation which is
presented to the Internal Revenue Service. The application includes information as to public
purpose, the county, the agency using the facilities, the proposed lease terms, terms of title
reversion to the county and the proposed method of financing.
Corporate Bonds and the S.E.C.:
As corporate bonds are subject to registration requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, a "no action" letter must be obtained from the S.E.C. In essence, the S.E.C. says
that no action will be taken if the bonds of the building authority/non-profit corporation are not
registered.
The Purchase Contract:
Once the building authority is created with powers to act, it may enter into a contract to
purchase the facility. The contract should be subject to:
1. A favorable revenue ruling from the Internal Revenue Service.
2. Receipt of an S.E.C. "no action" letter.
• 3. Finalization of financing.
428
The Bond Issue:
When all legal and tax questions are answered the building authority may issue bonds for the
• purchase of the facility. Normally the bonds are sold directly to an underwriter who then resells
the bonds to the ultimate investor.
The bonds that are issued will be an obligation of the building authority only and not a debt
obligation of the county.
The County Lease:
Upon the issuance of the bonds and the purchase of the building by the building authority, the
county can lease the building from the authority. The lease would be from year-to-year with
automatic renewal unless otherwise terminated. A county lease for any period in excess of one
year constitutes a debt and must be approved by voters.
The Bond Security:
The security of the bond holders may be only in a pledge of lease revenues by the authority.
The bond holders may also have a first mortgage lien on the building. The combination of the
two results in a more secure bond and a correspondingly lower rate of interest.
Partial Seller Financing:
• Depending on factors such as the seller's motivation, whether there is an existing loan on the
building, and negotiations, a bond issue can be for only the amount necessary for a down
payment. The sellers can carry back the balance, receiving installment sale tax benefits on the
capital gains. A revenue ruling would be required; however, interest paid on a promissory note
to the seller may also be tax exempt. The total cost to the county and the building authority then
may be substantially lower on this basis.

CORRECTIONAL FACILITY
Existing Situation:
The Centennial Complex Jail was constructed in 1978, and was remodeled three times to
increase the capacity to 294 beds. In 1997, Phase I of the North Jail Complex was constructed
with 160 beds and all of the core service facilities. The North Jail Complex is currently designed
for a build out of 779 beds, but the site can accommodate over a 1,000-bed facility. Each phase
would be in increments of approximately 160 - 375 beds. Jail population continues to grow in
Weld County, but the growth rate has slowed the last few years due to more use of jail
alternative programs. Phase II was completed and opened in January, 2004. Phase II added
245 beds based upon the design. Construction of Phase II allowed for the closure of the
Centennial Jail and conversion of the space to accommodate Court needs. Phase III, which
added 374 beds, was constructed in 2006 - 2007, and was opened in February 2008.
Proposed Solution:
It is proposed that additional phases of the North Jail Complex be constructed in increments of
beds, as needed. The total project of approximately 211,355 square feet will be constructed in
phases. The first phase, constructed in 1997, was 125,775 square feet. It included the core
service facilities, such as kitchen, administrative offices, medical detention, booking area, and
lobby to accommodate over 1,000 inmates. Phase II has 245 beds and is both maximum and
medium security to accommodate the projected inmate classifications. Phase II was
constructed in the 2002 - 2003 time frame and became fully operational as of 2004. Phase III
• has 374 beds and was constructed in 2006 - 2007. There are currently 779 beds available.
Financing:
It is recommended that the county budget $20,000,000 in the 2013 - 2017 capital plan budget
for 350 additional beds. Nothing will be in the Capital budget in 2013 for jail construction.
Impact on Operational Costs:
In 2018, it is anticipated that the new jail capacity will be opened. The use of the capacity will
be phased in over a two to three year period, depending on inmate population growth. Based
upon past phased openings of the jail, the estimated additional annual costs are:
Item 2017 2019 2021
Staffing $ 1,210,000 $ 770,000 $ 1,100,000
Medical Costs 0 600,000 320,000

WELD COUNTY BUSINESS PARK
Existing Situation:
In 1987, Weld County acquired 160 acres located in the southwest corner of "O" Street and
North 11th Avenue in Greeley. Funds for the property came from the sale of the Health
Building.
Proposed Solution:
The property is large enough to allow for future consolidation of county facilities in one area.
The utilities and site improvement were developed in 1988, at an estimated cost of $1,750,000
with the aid of a $630,000 EDA Grant. The first facilities, completed in 1989, included a 15,000
square foot building for Human Services and a county motor vehicle shop. Fifty to 60 acres
have been developed for building and storage sites and approximately 60 acres can be mined
for gravel and reclaimed in an attractive way. The new correctional facility is located on this
site, as well as the Health Department, Household Hazardous Waste Building, Training Center,
Motor Pool, Public Works, Law Administration, Buildings and Grounds, Alternative Programs
Facility, Community Corrections Facility, and four administrative buildings. A portion of the
property was made available for commercial development and offered at no cost or low cost to
private parties for economic development incentives. A PUD was approved for land use
purposes in 1989.
Financing:
• Development, using future years' funds, is programmed into the long-range plan under specific
projects, which include a correction facility ($20,000,000).
Impact on Operational Costs:
See individual projects for cost impacts.

436
COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM
• Existing Situation:
Weld County, in 1975, created the Weld County Regional Communications Center and agreed
to fund the infrastructure to accommodate the communications system. The system consisting
of towers, radio receivers and transmitters, system controllers, consoles, computers, and
various communications equipment has been required to be replaced or upgraded
approximately every ten years with growth and technological changes. The costs have been
paid for by grants, Weld County government, and the E911 Authority.
Proposed Solution:
The communications system was upgraded in 2012 at a total cost of $7,700,000. The E911
Authority Board has agreed to fund the console equipment upgrade in the amount of
$2,000,000, and Weld County, in the Capital Expenditure Fund, funded the remaining costs. In
addition, the Board of County Commissioners has agreed to adopt a policy of funding a
$9,500,000 capital reserve in the amount of$950,000 per year, so that in ten years funds will be
in the capital reserve for the next upgrade and the 700 MHz conversion.
Financing:
The upgrade for 2012 was be funded by the E911 Authority Board funding $2,000,000 from its
reserve, and Weld County has funded $5,700,000 in 2012 for the remaining $5,700,000 in the
• Capital Expenditure Fund for the total cost of $7,700,000. Beginning in 2013, Weld County will
fund $950,000 per year for the Communications System Reserve for future communications
systems upgrades and the 700 MHz conversion.
Impact on Operational Costs:
There will be no additional operational costs for the system. Operational costs are currently
funded by Weld County, City of Greeley, the E911 Authority Board, and users using in excess of
$10,000 per year in allocated costs. It is not anticipated that the upgraded systems will be any
more expensive, operationally, to maintain than the current system.

GRADER SHEDS / STORAGE BUILDING
• Existing Situation:
The County currently has 18 grader sheds throughout Weld County, to accommodate road
maintenance functions in all sectors of the county. The grader sheds are in various conditions,
ranging from good to needing replacement. Seventeen have recently been replaced --
Nunn (1981), Gwonda (1982), Vim (1983), New Raymer (1984), Mead (1985), Rockport (1986),
Kiowa (1987), Severance (1987), Gilcrest (1989), Ault (1989), Briggsdale (1991),
Keenesburg (1994) Stoneham (1994), Dacono (1995), Fort Lupton (2000), Gill (2001),
Galeton (2003), New Raymer (2004), Rockport (2007), and Kersey (2010). In addition, four ice
control storage buildings were constructed in 2001 - 2003. An additional storage facility at the
Public Works Headquarters was built in 2003. A new Buildings and Grounds facility was built
in 2007, and the old facility was converted to a Printing and Supply facility. An additional
storage facility was purchased in 2009.
Proposed Solution:
An analysis of existing grader sheds determined which are required for the operational functions
of the road maintenance operation in Weld County. In the process some have been sold, others
consolidated, and some identified for replacement. In cases where existing grader sheds will
accommodate the maintenance function, it is suggested that attention be given to those sheds
that need maintenance or major improvements. Where necessary, replacement sheds have
been identified.
• Financing:
The county, since 1982, has totally reconstructed and upgraded all grader and road
maintenance facilities. The county should continue a sound maintenance and replacement
program, so the buildings do not fall into the disrepair condition they were in prior to 1982. The
funding mechanism is a pay-as-you-go function out of the Capital Fund. In 2013, a 15,000
square foot heavy equipment storage facility will be constructed ($800,000). Funds in the
amount of $300,000 per year for the years 2014-2017 are included for Public Works facilities.
The grader sheds will be replaced in Briggsdale (2014), Kiowa (2015), Johnstown (2016), and
Nunn (2017).
Impact on Operational Costs:
Vehicle storage facility will have utility costs of approximately $2,400 per year. Since the old
grader sheds are being replaced with new sheds, the county's experience is that there is
approximately a $1,000 per year savings on the utilities due to the use of radiant heat and
improved insulation. Staffing is unchanged.
•
438
JUSTICE CENTER
• Existing Situation:
The Justice Center includes the Courthouse, Court Annexes, and Centennial Center buildings.
It provides for the space needs of the 19th Judicial District. Under state law the county is
obligated to provide and maintain the facilities for court related activities. The Courthouse was
built in 1917 and is maintained on the Federal Register of Historical Buildings. After many
remodels and upgrades it still functions as the main court facility for Weld County. In the mid-
1980's two buildings across the street from the Courthouse were acquired and remodeled to
house the Probation Department. In 2001, the West Courthouse Annex Building was acquired
to house the District Attorney Juvenile Division. As the population grows and court related
activities grow the space requirements continue to expand. Four courtrooms were added in
2008.
Proposed Solution:
With the growing needs of the courts it will require that the county convert the Centennial
Center, including the jail, to courtrooms and court-related offices. With the construction of
Phase II of the North Jail, the Centennial Jail was closed and remodeled into court-related
space in 2004. All Sheriffs office administrative functions, along with Communications and
Records, were moved to the new Public Safety Administrative Building next to the North Jail in
2003. Over time the entire Centennial Complex will become court-related space, as well as the
two annex buildings to the west and east of the Courthouse. In 2004, three additional district
• courtrooms were created, a juvenile courtroom, and one additional county courtroom, and in
2009 four additional court rooms were built. The first floor of the Centennial Jail has been
converted into courtrooms. The second and third floors of the jail were remodeled in 2010 for
additional court and office facilities. First floor Centennial offices were converted into office
space for the Clerk to the Court. The space in the Courthouse occupied by the Clerk to the
Court was converted into a district courtroom. These courtrooms will supplement the current
vacant district courtroom and the visiting judge courtroom to accommodate four anticipated
additional judges through 2018. Space formerly occupied by the Weld County Commissioners
and administrative functions will be converted to court-related space since those functions
moved to a new administrative building in 2011.
Financing:
The county can accommodate court related activities in the space of the Justice Center for
several years. In addition, the block to the southeast of the Centennial Complex has been
acquired by the county and converted into a parking lot. In the future when the need arises, that
block can serve as a site for court building expansion and a parking garage structure to
accommodate court space needs. Also, in the next decade it may be necessary to have court
facilities in the southern part of Weld County where the population is growing at a rapid rate.
The funding mechanism for all court facility needs should be a pay-as-you-go function out of the
Capital Fund. The following page is a schedule of proposed conversion of Justice Center space.

ALTERNATIVE PROGRAMS
• BUILDING
Existing Situation:
Alternative programs are currently housed in the old jail and in the West Courthouse Annex. As
jail crowding becomes more and more of a problem, the alternative programs, such as work
release and pre-trial programs, are used more and more by the Court. The programs currently
occupy approximately 20,000 square feet. The space that the programs occupy is needed for
courtrooms and Probation office space.
Proposed Solution:
To accommodate the space needs of the alternative programs and allow for growth in the
programs, a 30,000 square foot building is proposed. The facility will be constructed in the Weld
County Business Park. This puts the facility in closer proximity to the jail for support services.
Financing:
The new 30,000 square foot Alternative Programs Building was completed in 2008.
Impact on Operational Costs:
• Impact of additional costs on the 2008 budget was $156,300 for utilities and maintenance.
Staffing costs were unchanged, since personnel were transferred from the old facility to the new
building.
•
441
LAW ENFORCEMENT
• ADMINISTRATION BUILDING
Existing Situation:
Growing needs of the courts require that the county convert the Centennial Center, including the
jail, to courtrooms and court-related offices. With the construction of Phase II of the North Jail,
the Centennial Jail will be closed and remodeled into court-related space. In addition, all
Sheriffs office administrative functions, along with the Communications and Records, were
relocated in 2004 to accommodate the courts.
Proposed Solution:
Since the entire jail operation was moved to the North Jail there are logistical advantages to
relocate all Sheriff Office functions near the jail site. To accommodate the space needs of the
Sheriffs Office, a 22,000 square foot office building near the North Jail site was constructed in
2002. The building houses the Sheriffs office functions, Communications, and Records. This
allows for the consolidation of all criminal justice functions at one site with the exception of
patrol substations.
Financing:
The new Public Safety Administration Building was constructed in 2002. Funds in the amount of
• $2,500,000 were budgeted in 2002 for the construction of a 22,000 square foot office building.
In 2010, the Records Unit was moved from the Law Enforcement Administration Building to the
former Human Services Building to free up space for the Sheriffs Office.
Impact on Operational Costs:
There was no impact of additional costs on the 2010 budget for utilities and maintenance, since
the space has been maintained in the past. Staffing costs were unchanged, since personnel
were transferred from the old facility to the new building.
•
442
REGIONAL CRIME LAB
• Existing Situation:
Currently the county has a crime lab located in the basement of the Centennial Complex, and
the former Planning Department office. The space is inadequate to meet the size and program
requirements. Weld County is taking the lead to create a regional crime lab for Northern
Colorado that would house approximately 40 crime lab staff members from various law
enforcement agencies and CBI.
Proposed Solution:
The proposed regional crime lab facility will consist of approximately 20,000 square feet. It will
contain private and open office areas, waiting areas, lobby space, meeting/conference rooms,
elevator(s), complete laboratory and forensics discovery area. It will be fully fire sprinkled. The
crime lab's location is in a business park off Highway 34 and WCR 17, which is a central
location for the Northern Colorado region.
Financing:
The construction of the regional crime lab started in 2012 financed by $4,000,000 in county
funds. It will be completed and fully operational by the second quarter of 2013.
•
Impact on Operational Costs:
Once the crime lab is constructed there will be additional costs in the budget for utilities and
maintenance, in the amount of $240,000. However, five participating agencies will pay
approximately 80% of this cost, or $192,000 for a net county cost of$48,000. Staffing costs are
unchanged, since personnel will be transferred from the old crime lab to the new building. A
Federal grant for$500,000 will fund the first two to three years of operational costs.
•
443
COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS FACILITY
• Existing Situation:
The Community Corrections program has been operated by private contractors since its
inception in Weld County in the early 1980's. The facility that the contractors have used is the
site known as The Villa, which were old dormitories on the UNC campus. UNC has encouraged
the Community Corrections Facility to move off campus due to the facility housing convicted
felons that are returning to the community from the Colorado Department of Corrections.
Recently, there have been problems with the contractor that owns the facility providing the
community correction services. The county realizes that without a county-owned community
corrections facility it limits the county's choices for a contract provider of the service and the
option of the county operating the facility itself through the Justice Services Department.
Proposed Solution:
The Board of Weld County Commissioners, in May 2008, made the decision that the county
should construct its own Community Corrections Facility in the Weld County Business Park.
The site will be at the entrance of the park at the northwest corner of 11th Avenue and H Street.
A 30,000 square-foot building was constructed in 2010 to accommodate the program. The site
can accommodate a doubling of the facility size at some future date at a cost of approximately
$5,000,000.
Financing:
• The new Community Corrections Facility was constructed, in 2010, within the Weld County
Business Park. An Energy Impact Grant, in the amount of $400,000, along with $4,600,000 in
county funds, funded the project.
Impact on Operational Costs:
There were additional costs in the 2010 and future budgets for utilities and maintenance, in the
amount of $160,000. However, the majority of the program costs are paid for from state
contracts with the State Department of Corrections through a lease to ICCS, which is the sub-
contractor operating the facility. Currently, the program services are provided by a private
contractor (ICCS).
•
444
DOWNTOWN GREELEY
• PARKING AND LAND
Existing Situation:
The Courthouse and Centennial Center are located in the center of downtown Greeley. The
future plans are for these facilities to be the judicial center for the 19th Judicial District that
serves Weld County. Parking has been a long time problem in the area for citizens using the
facilities. In addition, as Weld County looks to the future there will be a need to have land to
locate future court facilities. The court administration is insistent upon having a centralized
location, since other jurisdictions have had logistical problems attempting to split court facilities
into more than one location. As a result, there is a need to acquire land adjacent to the current
location to accommodate future court facilities.
Proposed Solution:
In July, 2003, the County purchased a portion of an adjacent block of property to the Centennial
Complex and Courthouse to allow for surface parking in the immediate future, and to provide
future building sites for future court facilities. Opportunity existed to purchase approximately
100,000 square feet adjacent to the current facilities in 2003. The parking was developed in
2004, and needed facilities can be constructed on this site in the future.
Financing:
• In 2003, fund balance from the General Fund, in the amount of $1,500,000, was transferred to
the Capital Expenditure Fund to acquire the site and put money aside for the parking
improvements in 2004. Approximately 250 parking spots have been developed to serve the
area. As portions of the site are needed for court building sites, a parking structure can be built
to accommodate added parking needs or land to the east or south of the site can be acquired
for surface parking. In the 2012 budget $2,000,000 was reserved for the purchase of property
adjacent to the current Justice Center location to accommodate future court facilities and
support services.
Impact on Operational Costs:
No new operation costs are anticipated.
•
445
ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE BUILDING
• Existing Situation:
The long term plan with the development of the Weld County Business Park was for the
eventual move of all administrative functions of the county to the business park. All of the
functions were housed at the Centennial Complex in 1976. In 1990-91 the Assessor, Treasurer,
Clerk and Recorder, and Planning were relocated to the business park. With the future space
demands of the courts it is anticipated that the remaining county administrative functions at the
Centennial Complex will need to be relocated to the Weld County Business Park within the next
year. This will leave the Centennial Complex as a justice and law enforcement center
exclusively.
Proposed Solution:
In order to accommodate the Court's space needs and the County's administrative functions it
was necessary to acquire a new administrative facility at the Weld County Business Park. To
accommodate the space needs of the existing administrative functions, and plan for future
growth, an existing 43,000 square-foot office building was purchased in 2010, and remodeled to
accommodate current and future County administrative functional needs.
Financing:
The County purchased the existing Sykes Building for $3,500,000 in June, 2010. Approximately
• another $2,300,000 was spent to remodel the building to make a fully functional administrative
building to house the County Commissioners' Office and associated administrative functions.
Vacant space will exist to accommodate growth for a number of years. The project was funded
by Capital Reserve funds.
Impact on Operational Costs:
There were additional costs in the 2011 budget for utilities and maintenance, in the amount of
$180,000. There were no additional staffing costs since the staff moved from other facilities to
occupy this building. Moving and relocation costs were $50,000.
•
446
SOCIAL SERVICES
• BUILDING ANNEX
Existing Situation:
The Social Services Building was acquired in the 1970's and in the mid 1990's an annex was
added. In 2005, additional land was purchased, adjacent to and south of the two existing
buildings. The additional land will accommodate another 20,000 square foot building and
parking.
Proposed Solution:
A new 40,000 square foot building was constructed in Greeley on the Social Services site in
2009. The building will accommodate the current services, plus allow room for future expansion
and consolidation of the Human Services and Social Services Departments.
Financing:
The building was constructed in 2009. Funds in the amount of$5,000,000 were budgeted in the
2008 budget for the 40,000 square foot building. Additional parking was constructed in 2007, in
the amount of$300,000.
Impact on Operational Costs:
• There were additional costs in the 2010 budget and beyond for utilities and maintenance, in the
amount of $210,000. However, the majority of the program costs are paid for from grants from
the State Department of Social Services. There were no additional staffing costs since the staff
moved from other facilities to occupy this building.
•
447
SOUTHWEST
• COUNTY SERVICE CENTER
Existing Situation:
The Southwest County Service Center was developed in 2000 - 2001. With the growth in the
area, additional facilities will be required to house all the County functions required to service
the area.
Proposed Solution:
It is proposed that an additional 20,000 square foot building be constructed on the Southwest
Weld County Service Center site in 2018. The building will accommodate the current services,
plus allow room for future expansion of services in the area.
Financing:
The building will be constructed in 2018. Funds in the amount of $4,000,000 are budgeted in
the 2018 budget or beyond for the 20,000 square foot building.
Impact on Operational Costs:
There will be additional costs in the budget for utilities and maintenance, in the amount of
• $120,000 when the facility is built. There will be no additional staffing costs since the staff will
be moving from other facilities to occupy this building. Moving and relocation costs are
estimated to be $30,000.
•
448
SOUTHEAST
• COUNTY SERVICE CENTER
Existing Situation:
The Southeast County Service Center was acquired as a used building in the early 1980's from
the City of Fort Lupton. With the growth in the area, the building was no longer large enough for
the functions located in the building, and the building was in need of remodeling.
Proposed Solution:
In 2006, a new 20,000 square foot building was constructed in east Fort Lupton on a five-acre
site. The building accommodates the historic services provided, plus Probation and increased
Human Services. The location of the building in east Fort Lupton will better accommodate not
only Fort Lupton residents, but also residents from the Hudson and Lochbuie areas. Additional
space may be added to the site in 2018, or beyond.
Financing:
The building was constructed in 2006.
Impact on Operational Costs:
No new operational costs are anticipated until constructed in 2018, or beyond.

MISCELLANEOUS PROJECTS
Existing Situation:
Each year there are several special projects to do major maintenance to buildings, update or
renovate county facilities, provide for new county programs, and remodel to accommodate
changing programs or meet new legal standards. An approach which provides miscellaneous
funds of this nature can prevent postponing necessary major maintenance or remodeling of
facilities and, thus, avoid added cost or delay of potential savings to the county and taxpayers.
In addition, such an approach can also make better utilization of existing facilities in order to
avoid the acquisition of new space and facilities. Carpet replacement, HVAC replacement, roof
replacement, elevator upgrades, remodels, and major maintenance projects should be included
in this category.
Proposed Solution:
It is recommended that an amount of $3,349,000 be set aside for such projects in the Long
Range Capital Projects Plan. A detailed listing of special projects is on the following two pages.
Financing:
It is recommended the county budget $3,349,000 over the next five years to accommodate the
detailed listing of special projects found on the following two pages.
• Impact on Operational Costs:
No new operational costs are anticipated. In most cases the HVAC systems replaced should be
more energy efficient resulting in energy cost savings.

ACCUMULATIVE CAPITAL
• OUTLAY/CONTINGENCY
Existing Situation:
If Weld County is to embark upon a number of ventures in capital projects over the next five
years, it is suggested the county proceed very cautiously and very conservatively in the area of
financing. To do this, it is suggested that a contingency be set aside each year on a pay as you
go basis to accommodate unanticipated cost increases or emergency situations which cannot
be foreseen at this time. If the contingency amount is accumulated over the next five years, it
can be used as a reserve for the capital projects program in future years, or it can be used as a
funding mechanism in years beyond 2017. The primary reserve would be for a future
correctional facility or other facilities at the North County Complex and southwest and southeast
County administrative office sites and to fund the replacement of the Communications system.
Proposed Solution:
Budget any carry-over amount each year on a contingency basis that ultimately could be used
to meet any contingency or emergency situation, or could be used as an accumulation of capital
outlay funds for funding of projects beyond 2018.
Financing:
It is recommended that the county budget fund balance carry-overs in the capital fund each year
• as a contingency.
Impact on Operational Costs:
None.

AIRPORT
• Existing Situation:
The Weld County Board of County Commissioners, with approval of the Airport Master Plan,
committed to participate in certain enhancements at the Airport facility, especially those
enhancements that will ensure the safety of airport operations. If the Board decides to continue
to participate in the joint funding of the Greeley/Weld County Airport Authority with the City of
Greeley, funds should be provided for in the Long Range Capital Projects Plan to accommodate
the FAA ADAP program during the next five years. Funds can also be made available to
maintain FAA constructed facilities.
Proposed Solution:
In the Long Range Capital Projects Plan for 2013, funds are included to accommodate capital
improvements at the Greeley/Weld County Airport. If funding is provided, it should be for
projects that emphasize safety features and other essential enhancements to the current
operation.
Financing:
Funding, in the amount of $0.00 is required in the Airport's 2013 Capital Improvement Plan
(CIP).
• Impact on Operational Costs:
Although the Airport Authority may incur additional operational costs from the projects in the
Airport CIP, no new operational costs are anticipated as a result of the Airport CIP for Weld
County government.

CONSERVATION TRUST FUND
• Existing Situation:
With the passage of SB119 (The Colorado Lottery), 40 percent of the proceeds of the lottery are
earmarked for Conservation Trust Funds in local governments. The earning potential of the
lottery is anticipated to be $376,000 per year. The funds must be used for "the acquisition,
development, and maintenance of new conservation sites, or for capital improvements or
maintenance for recreational purposes on any public site". (Section 29-21-101, C.R.S.) With
the passage of Amendment 8 (GO COLORADO) these funds should stabilize at $376,000 per
year, plus lottery sales growth. See Conservation Trust Fund for detailed discussion.
Proposed Solution:
The Board has the option to use the funds in the following ways:
1. Maintain and improve Island Grove Park.
2. Maintain and improve the Missile Site Park.
3. Acquire and maintain open space.
4. Develop and maintain trails.
5. Other project requests from throughout the county.
• Financing:
In addition to Conservation Trust Funds, it is recommended that the county finance parks and
recreation projects at a level of $29,000 in the General Fund from property taxes. Funds from
2013 forward are uncommitted.
Impact on Operational Costs:
No new operational costs are anticipated.
•
458
ISLAND GROVE
•
Existing Situation:
Weld County and the City of Greeley currently have certain joint ventures and commitments to
develop the Island Grove Park facility. Some discussion has been held regarding the creation
of an Island Grove Park Authority for development and management of the facility.
Proposed Solution:
If the Board of County Commissioners decides to continue participation in the development of
the Island Grove facility, it is recommended that Conservation Trust Funds from the lottery be
used to the maximum amount prior to use of county general tax funds.
Financing:
It is recommended that the county finance any Island Grove enhancements with Conservation
Trust Funds resulting from the lottery, to the maximum amount possible, prior to use of general
county tax funds. Beginning in 2003, $100,000 per year in General Fund dollars has been
committed to the maintenance of an indoor arena facility. Also, in 2000, the County contributed
$1,500,000 towards the construction of the indoor arena facility, known as the Island Grove
Community Building. The facility was constructed and will be maintained jointly by the City of
Greeley, Farm Show, and Weld County. $250,000 was included in the 2004 General Fund
budget to add air conditioning to the Island Grove Community Building. The county paid
• $1,500,000, in 2006, for the Island Grove Park Master Plan that covers improvements to the
park for the next 10 - 20 year period.
Impact on Operational Costs:
Although the Island Grove Park Authority may incur additional operational costs from the
projects in the park's CIP, no new operational costs are anticipated as a result of the park's CIP
for Weld County government. In most cases, the new park facilities planned will generate
revenues to support the additional operating costs.

PROPRIETARY FUNDS SUMMARY
• Proprietary funds include both Internal Service Funds and Enterprise Funds. Internal Service
Funds are established to account for goods and services provided to other departments of the
county on a cost-reimbursement basis. Enterprise Funds account for departments providing
services primarily to third party payers. With the transfer of the Paramedic Service to the local
hospital in 2012 Weld County will no longer have an Enterprise Fund in its budget.
PARAMEDIC SERVICE ENTERPRISE FUND: On April 23, 2012, The Board of Weld County
Commissioners entered into an agreement with NCMC, Inc. and Banner Health to transfer the
Weld County Paramedic Services to NCMC, Inc. for ownership and Banner Health for
operations effective May 7, 2012. NCMC, Inc. and Banner Health will assume operational and
financial responsibility for the paramedic service. The agreement calls for the paramedic service
to remain to be operated countywide by Banner Health. Therefore, there will no longer be a
Weld County Paramedic Service budget presented in the Weld County budget or financial
reports after 2012.
MOTOR VEHICLE FUND: The Motor Vehicle Fund accounts for the revenue and costs
generated by equipment and vehicles rented to other county departments. The gross operating
budget amounts to $8,360,000 in 2013, with $3,217,000 budgeted for new capital equipment.
The budget reflects the continuation of the contract fleet management approach adopted by the
Board in August, 1984. Depreciation is $2,850,000 for new equipment purchases, plus sale of
surplus items of$500,000. Grants in the amount of$510,000 for CNG vehicles and conversions
are included in the 2013 budget.
HEALTH INSURANCE FUND: The Health Insurance Fund reflects the cost of Weld County's
• self-insurance program which includes health, dental, and vision coverage. Details of the
program and coverage are found under the specifics of the fund summary. In 2013, the county
will continue with only dental and vision being self-insured. Health coverage will be provided by
a private company on a partially self-insured basis with a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO)
option and a High Deductible Health Plan/Health Reimbursement Account (HDHP/HRA) option.
INSURANCE FUND: The Insurance Fund accounts for all insurance costs for the county. The
program is a combination of insured risks and protected self-insurance risks. Gross budget
costs are $2,215,000 in 2013, with a property tax levy of$2,000,000. Details of the program are
provided under the specifics of the fund summary.
PHONE SERVICE FUND: Budget reflects total consolidation of phone service costs of
$1,604,772 in Weld County. Funding is at current level and reflects capital upgrades of
$250,000.
WELD COUNTY FINANCE CORPORATION: Budget contains the funding for the Weld County
Finance Corporation, which accounts for the lease purchases of county buildings. As of
August 1, 2007, there are no active leases. Weld County has no long-term debt.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: See listed equipment on next page. Sixteen vehicles have been
identified for possible CNG conversions. Sheriff office is requesting 2 additional vehicles and
District Attorney is also requesting an additional vehicle.
• FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: The District Attorney's request for a new
vehicle for the White Collar Crime Investigator is not included in the recommended budget. Due
to limited use and the nature of the investigations payment of mileage appears to be more
justified based upon practices common in other departments. Policy issue for the Board.
BOARD ACTION: Board adopted a new Vehicle Replacement Guide extending the
replacement time of vehicles due to the newer vehicles being constructed better and allowing
for an extention of the miles they can be driven economically prior to being surplused for sale.
In addition the Board is going to try a pilot program of refurbishing vehicles, especially patrol
vehilces, to extend the life of the vehilces. A similar program is operating successfully in El
Paso County. The refurbishing costs for a vehicle is approximately $8,000 and extends the life
of the vehicle 2-3 years.
As a result of these changes the cost for new IGA equipment was reduced $159,000 for 2013.
The Board did not approve the District Attorney's request for a new vehicle for the White Collar
Crime Investigator. The Public Works equipment request was amended due to CNG grant
vehicles resulting in a $14,000 increase. All other items were approved as requested.

offered county employees through CIGNA. The self-insured health program is funded at the
• level of$15,817,088 in 2013.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval. Budget
anticipates a 12 percent county contribution increase, which takes into account the cost
increase of medical care and the anticipated impact on insurance costs from the health reform
legislation. Weld County will utilize CIGNA, with a hybrid universal health PPO/HMO plan as
the health insurance provider in 2013, plus offer a high deductible health plan with a health
reimbursement account option through CIGNA.
In 2005, the county moved its health insurance plan to a consumer driven plan that combines a
high deductible PPO insurance policy along with an HMO component for preventative care, with
a low co-pay and low cost prescriptive drug program. The high deductible policy protects the
insured from catastrophic losses, such as prolonged illness, hospitalization or simply an
unexpected period of poor health. The plan is a partially self-insured program with stop loss
insurance. The goal is to make the employees aware of the true cost of health care, with a
program that will encourage employees and their families to make more judicious spending
decisions in return for paying lower insurance premiums and lower health care costs. The
health plan is being offered through CIGNA. In 2008, the County moved to a universal health
care option that has lower employee premiums and higher co-insurance and out-of-pocket
costs. A comprehensive wellness program was also implemented in 2008. In July, 2010, the
County opened its own health clinic in an attempt to better serve county employees' and their
dependents' primary health needs in a more convenient and cost effective manner. The clinic
contract will cost $552,912 in 2013. It is anticipated that there will be a savings to the insurance
plan of over $1,000,000, with a return on investment of at least 2 to1.

FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION (CONTINUED):
In 2013, it is recommended to continue that the base health plan offered along with the standard
PPO be a high deductible health plan with a health reimbursement account (HRA) option
through CIGNA. The County would contribute $1,000 to the HRA for those employees taking the
high deductible health/HRA plan. The standard PPO option offered will have higher deductibles,
co-pays, and out of pocket expenses. The Choice PPO with low deductibles will no longer be
offered. The new health plan options are consistent with the changes being made by the health
insurance industry and by major employers offering employee and dependent healthcare
benefits.
The 2013 program is calculated with current participation as follows:
Single Coverage: 669
Dependent Coverage: 542

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: The budget is structured with Weld County remaining a member of
• CAPP, but using the self-insured option under the insurance pool for a fixed cost of $353,700.
Effective January 1, 1992, Weld County became self-insured for workers compensation.
Workers Compensation includes excess insurance and bonds costing $500,000, claims
administration costs of$40,000, and a loss fund of$995,800. A loss fund for all other insurance
coverage is budgeted at $325,000. Unemployment insurance is being charged directly to
departments. The program is supported by property tax ($2,000,000), charges for service
($145,000), interest ($50,000), and compensation for losses ($20,000). No fund balance
reserves are anticipated to be needed to support the loss fund in 2013.
Property tax has been increased $250,000 due to workers' compensation claim history. Claim
costs for workers compensation have been increasing due to rising healthcare costs.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval of the insurance
program as outlined above in the summary of changes. In accordance with Section 8-44-204,
C.R.S., it is recommended that a mill levy be used to fund the insurance program for local
county activities and a charge back mechanism be used only for programs funded by state and
federal funding sources. Weld County, through CAPP, has reduced limits of coverage and
placed reliance on sovereign immunity to stay within the budgeted amount. The legislative
changes in 1986 strengthened the county's position in the use of sovereign immunity limits in
Colorado cases. In addition, the county can levy up to 10 mills per year to discharge any
judgment against it. Continuation of the self-insured program for workers compensation is
recommended, which should result in cost savings, plus no shared risks with other counties.
Unemployment costs are recommended to be charged directly to departments for revenue
raising strategies and departmental accountability for costs.

• SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Personnel Services are up $20,206 due to increases in salaries
and health insurance, plus an additional employee with dependent coverage. Phone costs are
up $143,800 with higher mobile device usage, and increased rates. Repair and maintenance is
down $29,009. Depreciation is up $7,468 due to new switches being installed. Capital costs
cover the system upgrades approved in 2011 for the 2011-2015 Capital Plan for phone
systems. In 2013 the capital items will include one processor being moved to the 35`h Avenue
tower site for the alternative communications center ($68,000), small offices will be put on VOIP
phones ($25,000) and the upgrade to Law Administration, North Jail, 1401, and 1551 phone
systems ($157,000).
Revenue is budgeted at $1,354,772. With the rate adjustment done in mid-2012 the utilization
billed will cover the costs of the phone service with the projected revenue.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval.
BOARD ACTION: Approved as recommended. In October, 2012, the State court facilities went
off the county's phone system. The revenue from court's use was about $108,000 per year.
There will be some offsetting decreases in corresponding costs. In 2013 a revised rate study will
be necessary to determine the fiscal impact once the change has been in place for a few
months.

GLOSSARY
• ACCOUNTING PROCEDURES All processes which discover, record, classify, and
summarize financial information to produce financial reports
and to provide internal control.
ACCRUAL BASIS The basis of accounting under which transactions are

or more organizational components of a government for the
purpose of accomplishing a function for which the
government is responsible. For example, "food inspection" is
an activity performed in the discharge of the "health" function.
ACTIVITY CLASSIFICATION Expenditure classification according to the specific lines of
work performed by organization units. For example, "sewage
treatment and disposal", "garbage collection", "garbage
disposal", and "street cleaning" are activities performed in
carrying out the function of "sanitation". The segregation of
the expenditures made for each of these activities constitutes
an activity classification.
• ALLOCATE To divide a lump-sum appropriation into parts which are
designated for expenditure by specific organizational units
and/or for specific purposes, activities, or objects.
ALLOCATED COSTS Indirect costs distributed to programs or departments via a
cost allocation plan.
ALLOCATION A part of a lump-sum appropriation which is designated for
expenditure by specific organizational units and/or for special
purposes, activities, or objects.
ALLOT To divide an appropriation into amounts which may be
encumbered or expended during an allotment period.
ALLOTMENT A part of an appropriation which may be encumbered or
expended during an allotment period.

economic stimulus legislation passed in 2009 to stimulate
economic growth.
APPROPRIATION
EXPENDITURE An expenditure chargeable to an appropriation. Since
virtually all expenditures of governments are chargeable to
appropriations, the term expenditures by itself is widely and
properly used.
ASSESSED VALUATION A valuation set upon real estate or other property by a
government as a basis for levying taxes.
• AUTHORITY A government or public agency created to perform a single
function or a restricted group of related activities. Usually
such units are financed from service charges, fees, and tolls,
but in some instances they also have taxing powers. An
authority may be completely independent of other
governments or partially dependent upon other governments
for its creation, its financing, or the exercise of certain
powers.
AUTHORIZED POSITION A position (job) authorized by the Board of County
Commissioners as part of the annual adopted budget.

The term "budget" is used in two senses in practice.
Sometimes it designates the financial plan presented to the
appropriating body for adoption and sometimes the plan
finally approved by that body. It is usually necessary to
specify whether the budget under consideration is preliminary
and tentative or whether it has been approved by the
• appropriating body.
484
BUDGET DOCUMENT The instrument used by the budget-making authority to
present a comprehensive financial program to the
appropriating body. The budget document usually consists of
• three parts. The first part contains a message from the
budget-making authority, together with a summary of the
proposed expenditures and the means of financing them.
The second consists of schedules supporting the summary.
These schedules show, in detail, the information as to past
years' actual revenues, expenditures, and other data used in
making the estimates. The third part is composed of drafts of
the appropriation, revenue, and borrowing measures
necessary to put the budget into effect.
BUDGET MESSAGE A general discussion of the proposed budget as presented in
writing by the budget-making authority to the legislative body.
The budget message should contain an explanation of the
principal budget items, an outline of the government's
experience during the past period and its financial status at
the time of the message, and recommendations regarding
the financial policy for the coming period.
BUDGETARY ACCOUNTS Accounts used to enter the formally adopted annual
operating budget into the general ledger as part of the
management control technique of formal budgetary
integration.
BUDGETARY COMPARISONS Governmental GAAP financial reports must include
• comparisons of approved budgeted amounts with actual

independent audit, so that all parties involved in the annual
operating budget/legal appropriation process are provided
with assurances that government monies are spent in
accordance with the mutually agreed-upon budgetary plan.
BUDGETARY CONTROL The control or management of a government or enterprise in
accordance with an approved budget for the purpose of
keeping expenditures within the limitations of available
appropriations and available revenues.

to exclude amounts represented by noncurrent liabilities.
Due to their spending measurement focus, governmental
fund types are concerned with the measurement of budgetary
expenditures.

estimated to be available to finance the projected
expenditures.
CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND A fund created to account for financial resources to be used
for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities
(other than those financed by proprietary funds, Special

DEFICIT (1) The excess of the liabilities of a fund over its assets.
(2) The excess of expenditures over revenues during an
accounting period; or, in the case of proprietary funds, the
• excess of expense over income during an accounting period.
DEPRECIATION (1) Expiration in the service life of fixed assets, other than
wasting assets attributable to wear and tear, deterioration,
action of the physical elements, inadequacy, and
obsolescence.
(2) The portion of the cost of a fixed asset other than a
wasting asset which is charged as an expense during a
particular period. In accounting for depreciation, the cost of a
fixed asset, less any salvage value, is prorated over the
estimated service life of such an asset, and each period is
charged with a portion of such cost. Through this process,
the entire cost of the asset is ultimately charged off as an
expense.
DIRECT COSTS Costs that have a clearly identifiable beneficial or causal
relationship to the services performed.
DURATION The weighted maturity of a fixed-income investment=s cash
flows, used in the estimation of the price sensitivity of
fixed-income securities for a given change in interest rates.

FUND A fiscal and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of
accounts recording cash and other financial resources,
together with all related liabilities and residual equities or
balances, and changes therein, which are segregated for the
purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain
objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions,

discretion allowed the grantee.
• HIGHWAY USER TAX(HUTF) Revenue that is derived from the state gasoline tax, and
restricted for Road and Bridge activities.
INDETERMINATE
488
APPROPRIATION An appropriation which is not limited either to any definite
period of time or to any definite amount. A distinction must
be made between an indeterminate appropriation and a
• continuing appropriation. In the first place, whereas a
continuing appropriation is indefinite only as to time, an
indeterminate appropriation is indefinite as to both time and
amount. In the second place, even indeterminate
appropriations which are indefinite only as to time are to be
distinguished from continuing appropriations in that such
indeterminate appropriations may eventually lapse. For
example, an appropriation to construct a building may be
made to continue in effect until the building is constructed.
Once the building is completed, however, the unexpended
balance of the appropriation lapses. A continuing
appropriation, on the other hand, may continue forever; it can
only be abolished by specific action of the legislative body.
INDIRECT COSTS Costs associated with, but not directly attributable to, the
providing of a product or service. These costs are usually
incurred by other departments in the support of operating
departments.
INTERFUND TRANSFER Amounts transferred from one fund to another.
INTERGOVERNMENTAL
REVENUE Revenue received from another government for a specified
purpose. In Weld County, these are funds from
• municipalities, the State of Colorado, and the Federal
Government.
INTERNAL SERVICE FUND Funds used to account for the financing of goods or services
provided by one department to another department on a cost
reimbursement basis, for example, the Printing and Supply
Fund and the Computer Services Fund.
LINE-ITEM BUDGET A budget that lists each expenditure category (salary,
materials, telephone service, travel, etc.) separately, along
with the dollar amount budgeted for each specified category.
MANDATE Any responsibility, action or procedure that is imposed by one
sphere of government on another through constitutional,
legislative, administrative, executive, or judicial action as a
direct order or that is required as a condition of aid.
MATURITY The date when the principal amount of a security is payable.
MILL LEVY(TAX RATE) Rate applied to assessed valuation to determine property
taxes. A mill is 1/10th of a penny or $1.00 of tax for each
$1,000 of assessed valuation.

MODIFIED ACCRUAL BASIS The accrual basis of accounting adapted to the governmental
fund type Spending Measurement Focus. Under it, revenues
are recognized when they become both "measurable" and
• "available to finance expenditures of the current period".
Expenditures are recognized when the related fund liability is
incurred except for:
(1) inventories of materials and supplies which may be
considered expenditures either when purchased or when
used;
(2) prepaid insurance and similar items which need not be
reported;
(3) accumulated unpaid vacation, sick pay, and other
employee benefit amounts which need not be recognized in
the current period, but for which larger-than-normal
accumulations must be disclosed in the notes to the financial
statements;
(4) interest on special assessment indebtedness which
may be recorded when due rather than accrued, if
approximately offset by interest earnings on special
assessment levies; and
(5) principal and interest on long-term debt which are
generally recognized when due. All governmental funds and
• Expendable Trust Funds are accounted for using the
modified accrual basis of accounting.
NET BUDGET The net budget eliminates double counting in the budget,
such as fund transfers, and thus represents the true level of
programmed spending in the budget.
NON-DEPARTMENTAL A category established to account for expenses not
associated with any specific department, but all departments
or many, within a fund.
OBJECT As used in expenditure classification, this term applies to the
article purchased or the service obtained (as distinguished
from the results obtained from expenditures). Examples are
