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 United Way request was combined with the 211 request for a combined reduction
of 10% in both programs. Promise for Children was reduced more due to the program's
ability to access other funding sources, whereas 211 do not have that ability.
Recommend approval.

• COMMUNITY AGENCY GRANTS
(CONTINUED)
1000-90150
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION(Continued):
. Convention & Visitor Bureau has requested $3,825 this year for visitor guides. This is
a 10% reduction over 2010. Recommend approval.
. 211 Information and Referral has requested $21,775 for the 211 information and
referral system operated by United Way. This amount, combined with Promises for
Children's request, is 10% less than the current year. Recommend approval.
. 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 amount is a 10% reduction from the 2010 funding level.
Recommend approval.
. Youth and Family Connections (formerly the Juvenile Assessment Center) has
requested the funding level of $30,660, as Weld County's share of law enforcement
support. The recommended amount is $27,594, or a 10% reduction.
• . Collaborative Management Program (formerly the Interagency Oversight Group) was
funded last year, in the amount of $50,000, to cover the contribution to the lOG for
Human Services, Health Department, and District Attorney. Human Services paid the
amount in 2010, so no General Fund dollars are required. Now that Weld County has
combined Social Service and Human Services into one Weld County agency, the county
will only be assessed for one board position instead of two, since the county gave up
one board position. With this change the assessment for the county dropped to
$40,000, less 10%, or $36,000. To strategically help the TANF allocation the
assessment will be paid by the Social Services Fund in this budget unit for 2011.
Recommend approval.
. RSVP was only funded in 2007 and 2008 for senior volunteer services, but has not been
funded since. RSVP has requested funding in the amount of $5,500 for 2011. Since
the Commissioner's budget policy direction is not to fund any new outside agencies in
2011, no funding is recommended. RSVP receives funds from the County through Area
Agency on Aging contracts.
BOARD ACTION: The Board restored the reduction to only 2.5%, instead of the 10%
recommended reduction for Convention and Visitor Bureau ($4,144), and the Audio Information
Network ($6,215). No funding was granted to RSVP, Senior Resource Center, or Right to
Read. Right to Read will be funded by Social Services paying a fee for service for TANF and
Job Service clients referred to Right to Read. All other outside agencies were funded as
recommended.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: No change. On June 28, 2010, the Board had a work session to
discuss the request for the addition of a cropping sciences agent. The Board indicated that with
the tight budget situation faced by the county, it would be difficult to add staff in 2011. As a
result, the department did not make the request for the additional agent in the 2011 budget
request. Final budget adjustments include an increase in salaries of$17,514.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval.

• 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 2011 total $41,912,191, which includes a fund balance of $15,500,000, in
addition to the revenue shown in the budget. Property tax is set at $6,987,191. Specific
ownership tax is estimated to be $6,330,000, the same as 2010. Regular HUTF is at
$8,040,000 due to people driving less and more fuel efficient vehicles. However, with the
passage of SB09-109, Weld County will receive $1,490,000 from the added HUTF revenue
resulting from this new legislation. Total HUTF will be $9,530,000, the same as the current
year. Other revenues include $835,000 from transportation impact fees. Permit revenues are
budgeted at $400,000, and other state and federal revenues are up $30,000 due to motor
vehicle registration fees.
Severance tax is budgeted at $1,600,000 for 2011. 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. $500,000 from the severance tax fund balance
amount will be budgeted in 2011.
The budgeted appropriations for Public Works in 2011 total $27,110,957, down $439,383.
Municipal share back is funded at $1,676,452, up $285,802 due to the drop in oil and gas
• assessed values in the unincorporated areas of the county. No salary increases are proposed,
but $266,920 is budgeted to cover the increase in health insurance costs.
The Other Public Works budget is down $1,429,700 based on the Capital Improvement Plan.
The drop in Strategic Road improvements of$1,356,500 accounts for the majority of the change
in Other Public Works. Contract Payments decreased $161,700, to $1,560,000 based on the
capital improvement plan. Mining has included the same funding level as 2010 for gravel
purchases. Pavement Management is funded at the current year level, with $3,064,450
included for asphalt purchases. Seasonal staffing is maintained at the current level. Other
operating budgets for road and bridge maintenance are funded at the same level as 2010. With
the lack of any inflationary trends the current service level should be able to be maintained with
the funding recommended.
The 2011 Public Works Capital Improvements Plan is available on the county web site at
htta://www.co.weld.co.us/departments/public works/index.html.

CONCERNING LOCAL
• ACCOUNTABILITY
FOR MONEY USED
FOR HIGHWAY PURPOSES
In accordance with Section 29-1-110, C. R. S., 1973, at a public hearing on the budget, Weld
County must discuss the proposed use of its allocation of highway users tax fund monies and
the County Public Works Fund and provide an opportunity for any elector to be heard on the
expenditure of such monies for the current year and for the fiscal year govemed by the
proposed budget.
The proposed use of the 2011 allocation of highway user tax fund monies and county road and
bridge fund are as follows:
Maintenance of Condition $ 6,171,058
Maintenance Support 1,397,957
Trucking 1,960,985
TOTAL $ 9,530,000

CONSTRUCTION BIDDING FOR
STATE-FUNDED LOCAL PROJECTS
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 2011 budget would be allocated
as follows by the above categories:
• TOTAL HUTF STATE LOCAL/OTHER
Bridge Construction 3,887,635 $ 0 $ 3,887,635
Maintenance of Condition 6,171,058 6,171,058 0

Contract 1,560,000 0 1,560,000
TOTAL $27,110,957 $ 9,530,000 $17,580,957
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 $3,064,450 in asphalt purchases and
contracts for overlays and reconstruction, and chip and seal of $1,143,000, for a total of
$4,207,450 in bid projects for 2011. A major portion of the $384,500 earmarked for Strategic
Roads and contracts may also be contracted, which raises the potential bid project amount to
$4,591,950. Maintenance of effort requirement was eliminated by the 1994 State Legislature,
effective with the 1995 budget; therefore, it is not demonstrated in this budget document.

revenue resulting from this new legislation. Total HUTF will be $9,530,000, the same as the
current year. Other revenues include $835,000 from transportation impact fees. Permit
revenues are budgeted at $400,000 in the Final Budget. Other state and federal revenues are
up $30,000 due to motor vehicle registration fees.
Severance tax is budgeted at $1,600,000 for 2011. 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, and $500,000 from the severance tax fund
balance amount will be budgeted in 2011.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval.
BOARD ACTION: Approved as recommended. An additional $75,000 was added to Permits
Revenue due to the new fee schedule of access permits and an increase in Right-of-Way
Permits adopted mid-2010 by the Board.

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.
The total Social Services Fund budget is $28,564,500. The programs are funded by property
tax of $9,166,333, and state and federal funds of $19,398,167. 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.
As consumer costs for fuel, utilities, and food continue to rise, and as homeowners face
mortgage foreclosure situations, more Weld County citizens are being placed in a position of
requiring assistance. Food Assistance, Medicaid, and LEAP caseloads have experienced
significant increases in the past year. The department anticipates growth in OAP over the next
decade due to the number of citizens that are reaching retirement age. The Department has
increased the amount of resources dedicated to detecting client fraud. The major challenge
associated with fraud is the difficulty of establishing the true household composition.
• 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. There are efforts underway to modify the Medicaid eligibility determination
functions of CBMS, in order to streamline the application process. Weld County will support
these efforts only if they do not negatively impact those seeking to apply for this assistance.
New legislation enacted in the 2008 Legislative Session placed restrictions on the amount of
TANF County Reserve counties are allowed to maintain. Weld County anticipates fully
exhausting our TANF County Reserve prior to the beginning of 2011. Efforts to purchase
excess Reserves from other counties have produced minimal results. We will continue to
attempt to find counties willing to sell available reserves.
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 Child Care Automated Tracking
System (CHATS) is being replaced. The new system should be up and running prior to the
beginning of 2011. The new system will be based on an electronic attendance record of
children in care, which will drive an automated payment to the provider for hours for which the
care has been authorized.
The demand for Child Welfare services continues to expand in Weld County, as it has
throughout the State. The Department is continuing to seek out and encourage the provision of
services, with their associated costs, early in the involvement with families, in order to avoid the
need for more costly services as the involvement continues. Working with the Inter-Agency
• Oversight Group, the Department has moved toward a policy of utilizing local placement options
for children, whenever possible, to increase parental involvement and to decrease case-worker
292
travel costs. The need for Supervised Visitations has become a significant issue in recent
• years. The Department continues to participate in State-wide discussions regarding the
potential of amending the method used to allocate available Child Welfare appropriations
among counties. The current discussion involves some fairly minor changes to the allocation
model, itself. The emphasis is on providing counties with a better understanding of the model,
so that we may use this knowledge in making programmatic decisions in such a way that they
both provide high quality services to the citizens of Weld County and maximize our opportunity
for available funding. Weld County is anticipating an over-expenditure of its Child Welfare
allocation in excess of $4,000,000. This over-expenditure will be partially mitigated by the
usage of excess Federal funds earned, but will require the infusion of $3,000,000 in additional
County General Funds in 2011 to fully absorb.
A list of cost containment and revenue generation strategies are on the following four pages that
were considered by the Board of Weld County Commissioners during the 2011 budget process
to mitigate some of the cost impacts faced by the department in 2011. The Board's action is
listed under the "Additional Information" column.

State establishes administrative allocations and reimburses at various rates depending on the
type of expenditure and program. Expenditures greater than allocation are not guaranteed to be

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Food Assistance and Medicaid caseloads continue to increase,
dramatically. As the economy weakens and as Federal stimulus funds have been directed
toward these programs, more Weld County citizens are being placed in a position of requiring
and requesting assistance. The State computer systems designed to support these programs
has created inefficiencies the Department continues to deal with. The Commissioners, in
February, 2010 approved 13 additional positions to deal with the increased demand and
decreased efficiencies. Included in this Budget Request is a Placeholder Request for an
additional six positions, contingent on subsequent approval by the Board, based on further
analysis of the needs of the Department.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval. It is
recommended that the Board adopt the cost containment and revenue generation strategies
presented to mitigate some of the cost impacts faced by the department in 2011.

Budget Positions -- -- -- --
• SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Property tax is budgeted at $9,166,333 for 2011. The difference
is a combination of special revenue from various department programs. Child Support Federal
Incentives are no longer received as direct revenue, but rather as a reimbursement of
expenditures, therefore, they are reflected in Budget Unit 2100-42200. The Child Support
TANF-Retained Incentive has been increased from ''A to the full amount of the State Share,
estimated at $270,000. Federal Stimulus funds, however, have been appropriated to provide
temporary additional funding within the Child Support appropriation to make up the additional
Federal funds originally lost due to the Deficit Reduction Act. The County Contingency
appropriation has been abolished, and re-funded to the County Tax Base Relief Fund, from
which Weld County will not likely receive revenues. The TANF Adjustment is $760,000 and the
TANF Work Participation Bonus is estimated to be earned at $145,000. Incentives earned as
the result of claims collections for Food Assistance, Medicaid, TANF, and State-only Programs
are estimated to be $75,000. Parental Fee Incentives, previously budgeted in this line item, are
budgeted in Child Welfare this year, since they will be utilized to cover Child Welfare over-
expenditures.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: No significant changes are anticipated in this program for 2011.
However, as fiscal pressures are dealt with at the Federal and State levels, changes could be
forthcoming that will affect this funding. CBMS continues to impact the productivity of staff and
create delays in the delivery of payments and benefits. Many of the inefficiencies creating these
delays are being resolved. New legislation enacted in the 2008 Legislative Session placed
restrictions on the amount of Reserve counties are allowed to maintain. Weld County is not
currently in danger of forfeiting any of its Reserves due to this legislation. We were, however,
seeking to obtain excess allocation and reserves from other counties. The availability of such
funds has been sharply limited by this legislation. The Department presented its plan on
reducing its dependence on TANF as a funding source in a May, 2010 Board Work Session.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval. It is
recommended that the Board adopt the cost containment and revenue generation strategies
presented to mitigate some of the cost impacts faced by the department in 2011.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: The Colorado Department of Human Services is in the process of
installing a new provider payment system, to replace the current CHATS system, for tracking
and reimbursing Child Care services being provided. This new system, if fully implemented as
envisioned, could better identify requests for payment which are not allowable. It should provide
us with much better tracking reports to manage the resources available to the county in this
program. Weld County is one of five Pilot Counties testing the implementation of the system.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: The demand for Child Welfare services continues to expand in
Weld County, as it has throughout the State. The Department is continuing to seek out and
encourage the provision of services, with associated costs, early in the involvement with
families, in order to avoid the need for more costly services as the involvement continues. The
Department is participating in State-wide discussions regarding the potential of a new method of
allocating available appropriations among counties. While costs in 2011 will remain fairly
constant from 2009 and 2010 levels, the availability of alternative funding has been severely
reduced. This will necessitate the increased usage of County General Funds. The Department
presented its plan on reducing its dependence on TANF as a funding source in a May, 2010
Board Work Session.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval. It is
recommended that the Board adopt the cost containment and revenue generation strategies

However, as fiscal pressures are dealt with at the Federal and State levels, changes could be

shorten the number of foster care placements and to meet the demands of the Drug Court and
associated programs. Like the Child Welfare program, alternative funding for this program is
not as available as it has been in prior years, thus requiring greater reliance on County general
funds.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: During 2009 and 2010, the Department was able to supplement
the funding of these expenditures through the use of a special appropriation of Social Services
Block Grant and Federal Stimulus funds. These funding sources will not be available for 2011.
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

• PUBLIC HEALTH FUND SUMMARY
The Department of Public Health and Environment is organized into five divisions to efficiently
and effectively deliver the scope of programs comprising public health's "ten essential services."
The five divisions consist of: Administrative Services; Public Health Services; Environmental
Health Services; Health Communication, Education and Planning; and the Office of Public
Health Preparedness. The 2011 budget totals$8,101,406.
In 2010 the Department submitted a budget reflecting a 16 percent decrease in county general
fund support for activities. Staff and programs were reduced to accommodate decreased
revenue support due to the economic conditions at the local, state, and national levels. For
2011, the Department's request reflects a further 4.0 FTE reduction in staff beyond those made
in the 2010 budget. The budget represents an increase in net county support of $150,167 over
2010, largely due to increases in Personnel Services for step increases and insurance, fixed
costs, and projected revenue losses as a result of legislative action in the 2010 session. For
example, revenue from the issuance of birth certificates will decline due to a legislative
requirement that allows departments of human services to request "no charge" certificates for
individuals under federal poverty income guidelines who are applying for entitlement programs.
The Administration Services Division houses vital records (birth and death certificates), grants
management for all divisions, cashiering and billing functions for clinical services, and all
accounting and finance operations for the Department, including budgeting, p-card
reconciliation, purchase order processing, reimbursement requests, time keeping and Banner
data entry and reporting. The Division's 2011 budget request projects an increase of$34,499 in
• net County cost, which is shown as Contra Expense when allocated to the other divisions within
the Department. This increase is the net result of an $11,385 increase in Personnel Services,
an increase of $3,664 in Purchased Services, and a $19,450 decrease in Revenue from the
sale of certified copies of birth and death certificates. The increase in Personnel Services is a
result of the increased cost of health insurance and increase in salaries due to step increases.
The increase in Purchased Services is reflecting the increased cost of information technology
support allocated to the Department by ACS. The projected 10 percent decrease in revenue is
based on competing factors: a decrease in revenue as the result of SB10-006, which requires
local vital records offices to provide birth certificates at no cost to county Departments of Human
and Social Services, and to individuals presenting letters of referrals from those departments;
and a projected increase in 2011 in the fees allowed for issuing birth and death certificates to
individuals not eligible for a "no cost" birth certificate under SB10-006. Non-program revenue
from per capita state funding to support essential public health services is projected to decrease
by$16,283 in 2011, since part of these funds will be retained by the State to balance its budget.
Public Health Services houses most of the direct clinical and disease investigation services
operated by the Department. These programs include: the Communicable Disease Program
(including prevention programming through Immunization Services), Tuberculosis Prevention
and Treatment, Nurse Home Visitor Program, Prenatal Outreach, Family Planning, Travel Clinic,
HCP (Health Care Program for Children with Special Needs) and EPSDT (Early Periodic
Screening Diagnosis and Treatment). This Division provided the core staff to successfully
immunize thousands of people against H1N1 disease during the 2009-10 influenza prevention
campaign. The Division's 2011 budget request reflects further staff reductions and cost savings
in supplies and purchased services in an attempt to balance projected revenue decreases from
state and federal grant programs. The projected increase in Personnel Services reflects step
• salary increases and higher insurance costs. Supplies are targeted to be reduced by $64,475 in
2011. The Division proposes reducing some programming (e.g., breast and cervical cancer
326
screening) that will result in lower costs for Purchased Services. Projected decreases in grant
• revenues for 2011 are $191,270, some resulting from one time grants which are no longer
available while others are due to "budget balancing" reductions in funding from state and federal
sources. To balance the budget, the Division reduced services, FTE, and costs. It presents a
2011 budget with increases only in Personnel Services (step salary increases and insurance)
and Fixed Charges.
Environmental Health Services houses most of the Department's regulatory, consumer
protection, and code enforcement programs. Overall, despite a decreased request in Personnel
Services and Supplies, the Division's net county cost is proposed to increase by $32,358. The
primary expenses contributing to the increase include increased ACS costs ($61,696),
increased Fixed Charges ($12,987), and an anticipated decrease in revenue ($29,968). The
Division's Personnel Services request, which includes as Contra Expense the transfer of 50
percent of the expenses of the Planning Director position, proposes a decrease of $47,439
when compared to the 2010 request. The reduction is due to the combination of the EHS
Director and Planning Director positions and the reduction in force of an Office Technician. The
Division's request for Supplies has decreased by four percent, or $6,555. The Division's
request for Purchased Services increased by$43,397, or nine percent. This increase is due to
ACS support costs, which represents a $61,696 increase over fiscal year 2010; otherwise, the
Division has reduced Purchased Services expenses by $18,299. Revenue is expected to
decrease by almost $30,000, primarily due to a reduction in the state air contract ($14,000) and
a drop in ISDS permits ($15,000).
The Division of Health Communication, Education and Planning houses the Department's health
risk reduction programs such as Tobacco Prevention, Cardiovascular Risk Reduction, Healthy
Eating/Active Living, Healthy Relationship Education, and Public Information services. This
• Division projects significant shifts in funding for 2011 with changes in grant supported programs.
The Division has worked hard to control costs to match projected grant revenues in programs
with some of the most significant long-term impacts on improving health outcomes and reducing
health care costs. Because the Department was able to offset significant county costs for
communicable disease and emergency response activities supported by federal grant funding
during 2009 and 2010, the department proposes using some of the savings as transition funding
to offset the projected $33,710 increase in net county support in the 2011 budget request.
The Office of Public Health Preparedness (also referred to as the Division of Emergency
Preparedness and Response) was created following 9/11 and the recognition that many of
today's national emergencies are likely to be health related and will require a public health work
force prepared to respond alongside traditional first responders, i.e., law enforcement, fire, and
pre-hospital services. This Division houses and oversees an all hazards approach to readiness
assessment, planning, training, and response. The Division interfaces directly and supplements
the County's overall efforts directed by the Office of Emergency Preparedness, specifically filling
a leadership role in Emergency Support Function #8. The support for emergency response
programming was affected significantly by H1N1 funding, temporarily reducing Net County costs
for a twelve-month period. The Division returns to a pre-H1N1 baseline budget request
recognizing the one-time H1N1 funding support is not projected to continue in 2011.
Difficult economic conditions have presented huge challenges to local and state policy makers
in funding vital infrastructure. These tough economic conditions have also presented families
and businesses with challenges, such as lost wages and decreased health insurance benefits,
which affect an individual's ability to be self-sufficient. In the face of a growing population and
increased demand for services, the Department continuously strives to provide the ten essential
• services of Public Health in order to achieve its goals, while fulfilling the County's mission and
commitments to the residents of Weld County. The 2011 budget request continues to reflect
extraordinary fiscal constraint.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: There is an $11,385 proposed increase in Personnel Services due
to the increased cost of health insurance and an increase in salaries due to step increases. The
$3,664 increase in Purchased Services reflects the increased cost of data processing support
(ACS). The request is based on actual costs for IT support for 2009.
The $19,450 decrease in revenue is based on the actual revenue realized in 2009 and the
anticipated passage of SB10-006 which will require local vital records offices to provide birth
certificates at no cost to county departments of Human Services and Social Services and to
individuals presenting letters of referrals from those county departments. Previously,
community charities have paid for birth certificates for indigent persons who demonstrated a
need in order to prove citizenship for eligibility for benefits from these county departments. It is
anticipated the State Office of Vital Records will request increases in the fees for both birth and
death certificates to help offset the loss of revenue resulting if SB10-006 is passed.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: The Personnel Services increase of $43,502 results from the
increased cost of health insurance and step increases for existing staff. The decrease in
supplies of $64,475 will be seen through cost savings in medical supplies in the Travel
Immunization Clinic, Family Planning Initiative, Well Women's Connection, and Maternal Health.
In some cases, the decreased need for supplies is due to decreased grant revenue for services.
Decreased spending in Women's Wellness Program is in response to lower grant revenue. The
budget for this program will be capped at $35,000, resulting in a cost savings in Purchased
Services such as mammograms, ultrasounds, biopsies, etc. Projected savings total $41,355.
Other decreased services include Data Processing, HCP contracted services, and local travel.
The decreased revenue of $191,270 is primarily from decreased grant funding in Women's
Wellness Connection ($91,000), EPSDT ($50,756), Prenatal Navigator ($22,000), Colorado
Family Planning Initiative ($38,247), and Immunization Outreach ($29,384).

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Overall, despite a decreased request in Personnel and Supplies,
the EHS Divisions Net County Cost is proposed to increase by $32,358. The primary expenses
which contribute to the increase are increased ACS costs ($61,696), increased fixed charges
($12,987), and an anticipated decrease in revenue ($29,968). Personnel Services (includes
Contra Expense, which is a transfer of 50 percent of the expenses of the Planning Director
position, has decreased $47,439 when compared to 2010. The reduction is due to the
combination of the EHS Director and Planning Director positions, as well as the reduction in
force of an Office Technician. The Division has requested a position upgrade for a highly
trained individual in order to retain exceptional employees, which costs approximately
$3,541/year. The request for Supplies has decreased by four percent, or $6,555. The request
for Purchased Services increased by $43,397, or nine percent. This increase is due to ACS
support costs, which represents a $61,696 increase over fiscal year 2010; otherwise, Purchased
Services expenses are reduced by $18,299. Revenue is expected to be down by $29,968,
primarily due to a reduction in the state air contract ($14,000) and a drop in ISDS permits
($15,000).

currently located. The $5,374 decrease in supplies is due to H1N1 financial assistance in 2010
helping rotate consumable supplies. The $5,956 increase in Purchased Services is for
anticipated charges and fees. The fixed charge increase of $43,350 reflects the overhead
payment to the Health Communications Division to cover the expense of the half-time BT
Planner position and a slight increase in the Health Department Administration overhead
allocation.

HUMAN SERVICES FUND SUMMARY
The Human Services Fund is funded at $9,164,942 for 2011, which is up $677,604, or
7.98 percent, from the previous year, primarily in the area of Jobs programs ($475,129) and
Area Agency on Aging programs ($311,280). Community Services Block Grant is down
$99,270. 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 2011
budget.
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 $2,998,224 for 2011. In addition, the Job Service contract will be
$1,112,122, and Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) is funded at $785,656,
primarily for training of TANF clients.
The Human Services Fund is totally funded through state and federal programs with the
exception of the 25 percent local match for the Aging program, which amounts to$12,351.
Other programs of the Human Services Fund remain relatively stable programmatically with the
following 2011 funding levels:
Supplemental Foods $ 1,428,630
Area Agency on Aging $ 2,225,721
Senior Nutrition $ 422,238
CSBG $ 180,000
In the above programs, Weld County must continue to be responsive and reactive to federal and
state administrative and budget changes in 2011.

SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS
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 $6,800,000. Given the uncertainty of state and
federal funding and tax collections, it is recommended that this amount, coupled with the
$21,000,000 carry-over fund balance in the Contingency Fund, be retained.
SOLID WASTE FUND:
The Solid Waste Fund is funded at the anticipated revenue level of fees at $685,000. There is
an anticipated beginning fund balance of $150,000. 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; $15,000 for
community cleanups; and $77,091 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 $415,000 based upon the anticipated operating
costs for 2011. The budget reflects funding of Island Grove Park only.
EMERGENCY RESERVE FUND:
The Emergency Reserve Fund is 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. A reserve of $6,000,000 has been established for 2011, which is greater than
the required three percent of fiscal spending.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Revenues from the Colorado Lottery are being projected at
$410,000 and $5,000 from interest earnings. Island Grove Park will have a gross cost of
$475,207, less $112,500 in revenue, for a net of$362,707, down $12,255, or 3.3 percent, from
2010. The decrease is due to a drop in costs of$4,255, and facility rental fees being up $8,000.
A total of$52,293 is allocated for capital improvements to the buildings. Since 2002, the Missile
Site Park has been funded in the General Fund.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Historically, the following is the amount
of money received annually since the lottery started:

carry-over fund balance of $26,800,000. An ending fund balance of $20,000,000 is projected.
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.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval.
BOARD ACTION: The Board increased the Contingency Fund balance by$1,000,000 by
adding $1,000,000 in property tax.

• Net County Cost $ -4,971 $ - 85,000 $ - 85,000 $ - 85,000
SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Due to the annexation of the Erie Laidlaw landfill, the revenue from
that site ($740,000 annually), has not been received since 2007. Therefore, the revenue
estimate is $660,000. The Department of Public Health and Environment costs for the
Household Hazardous Waste program will be $373,127. $15,000 is budgeted for community
clean-ups, and $77,091 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 2011 budget to mitigate impacts of landfills, such as road access,
cleanups, and transfer stations. A $150,000 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.
BOARD ACTION: Approved as recommended.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES FUND SUMMARY
The Capital Expenditures Fund was established to budget for financial resources used for the
acquisition or improvement of capital facilities of the county. A detailed Long Range Capital
Plan for 2011-2015 is presented in this section and relates to the specifics of the 2011 capital
project budget.
The Capital Expenditures Fund accounts for various capital improvement projects for county
buildings. The 2011 program is funded at $6,800,000, with $6,600,000 from property tax,
$100,000 from capital expansion fees, and $100,000 from interest. Anticipated projects include
$2,350,000 for the communications system upgrade, $250,000 for upgrades of Public Works
facilities, and $100,000 for special projects. A carry-over beginning fund balance of$2,000,000
is anticipated, and $6,100,000 ending reserve fund balance for the future jail expansion is
anticipated at the end of 2011.
Capital projects impacting the 2011 and future years' operational costs include the additional
Community Corrections facility that was completed in mid-2010. The facility added $80,000 in
2010 in utilities and operational costs and will add $160,000 in 2011. Program costs for the
facility are paid entirely from state Community Corrections grants. The costs will be offset from
rental of the facility to the contractor operating the facility. The Administrative Building will add
$180,000 in 2011 for operational costs. The Regional Crime Lab will add $240,000 in
operational and maintenance costs in 2011; however, the participating law enforcement
agencies will each pay one-eighth of the costs, so Weld County's share will only be $30,000.
Court remodels are in existing space and once completed will not add to maintenance costs,
and the staff are all state employees. It is estimated that the additional jail space planned for
construction in 2015 will impact the operational budget by $1,210,000 in 2015, $770,000 in
2016, and $1,100,000 in 2017.
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.

improvement projects for county buildings. The 2011 program is funded at $6,800,000, with
$6,600,000 from property tax, $100,000 from capital expansion fees, and $100,000 from
interest. Anticipated projects include $2,350,000 for the communications system upgrade,
$250,000 for upgrades of Public Works facilities, and $100,000 for special projects. A carry-
over beginning fund balance of $2,000,000 is anticipated, and $6,100,000 ending reserve fund
balance for the future jail expansion is anticipated at the end of 2011.

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 2011 - 2015.
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:
1. Introduction
2. Financing Alternatives
3. 2011 -2015 Five-year Plan
4. 2011 Budgetary Impact
The section on financing recommends a program for funding the next five years' capital
construction. This section lists the various sources of revenue currently available to the county,
and the alternatives available for financing the remainder of the capital projects program. The
2011 - 2015 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 2011 budget for the capital construction
program. It provides specific detail regarding each recommended project and the impact on the
• 2011 county budget.

FINANCING ALTERNATIVES
•
410
•
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 waft 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.
HB1111, passed in 1982, specifically provides for a capital improvements trust
fund for capital reserves.
•
411
• 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.
412
• 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.
•
•
413
• 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 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.
414
• 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.
•
415
• 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
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 govemment 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.
•
416
• 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.
•
417
• 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.
•
•
418
• 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.
419
• 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 640 beds, but the site can accommodate a 960-bed facility. Each phase would
be in increments of approximately 160 - 226 beds. Jail population continues to grow in Weld
County. Phase II has been completed and opened in January, 2004. Phase II added 226 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
160 - 226 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 640 inmates. Phase II has 226 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.
Financing:
It is recommended that the county budget $20,000,000 in the 2011 - 2015 capital plan budget
for 350 additional beds. Nothing will be in the Capital budget in 2011 for jail construction.
Impact on Operational Costs:
In 2016, 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:

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.

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:
It is proposed that the communications system be upgraded in 2011-2012 at a total cost of
$6,700,000. 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, will fund the
remaining costs. In addition, the Board of County Commissioners has agreed to adopt a policy
of funding a $5,000,000 capital reserve in the amount of$500,000 per year, so that in ten years
funds will be in the capital reserve for the next upgrade.
Financing:
• The upgrade for 2011-2012 will be funded by the E911 Authority Board funding $2,000,000 from
its reserve, and Weld County will fund $2,350,000, in 2011 and 2012, for the remaining
$4,700,000 in the Capital Expenditure Fund for the total estimated cost of $6,700,000.
Beginning in 2013, Weld County will fund $500,000 per year for the Communications System
Reserve for future communications systems upgrades.
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 should be a pay-as-you-go function out of the Capital Fund. Funds in the
amount of$250,000 per year, in 2011 - 2012, are included for other Public Works facilities.
Impact on Operational Costs:
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.

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 Sheriff's 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. These courtrooms will supplement the current
vacant district courtroom and the visiting judge courtroom to accommodate four anticipated
additional judges through 2011. The first floor of the Centennial Jail has been converted into
courtrooms. The second and third floors of the jail are being remodeled 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. Space formerly occupied by the Weld County Commissioners and
administrative functions will be converted to court-related space since 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 Altemative 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.

•
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.

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. The crime lab's location is yet to be determined.
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
location of the building has not been finalized.
Financing:
• The proposed regional crime lab was to be constructed in 2010 using an Energy Impact Grant in
the amount of$2,000,000, a Federal grant in the amount of$500,000, and $2,500,000 in county
funds. However, due to the State of Colorado's budget problems the state has suspended the
awarding of any new Energy Impact Grants for the foreseeable future. The County's $2,500,000
and the Federal grant for$500,000 are being carried over into 2011, if the project does not start
in 2010. Without the Energy Impact Grant funding the project will have to be modified or
additional funds identified from other sources.
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, seven participating agencies will pay
approximately 87.5% of this cost, or $210,000 for a net county cost of $30,000. Staffing costs
are unchanged, since personnel will be transferred from the old crime lab to the new building.
•
434
• 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.
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 will be 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).
•
435
• 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.
Impact on Operational Costs:
No new operation costs are anticipated.
•
436
• 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 $1,000,000 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 will be additional costs in the 2011 budget for utilities and maintenance, in the amount of
$180,000. 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 $50,000.
•
437
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:
It was proposed that a new 40,000 square foot building be 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 will be no additional staffing costs since the
staff will be moving from other facilities to occupy this building.
•
438
• 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 for the 20,000 square foot building.
Impact on Operational Costs:
• There will be additional costs in the 2018 budget for utilities and maintenance, in the amount of
$120,000. 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.
•
439
•
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 small projects to 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 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 should be included in this category.
Proposed Solution:
It is recommended that an amount of $100,000 per year be set aside for such projects in the
Long Range Capital Projects Plan.
Financing:
It is recommended the county budget$100,000 in each future year.
Impact on Operational Costs:
No new operational costs are anticipated.

•
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 2015. 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 2015.
• 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 FM 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 2011, 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 $7,895 is required in the Airport's 2011 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 govemment.

• 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 $430,000 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 $430,000 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
2011 forward are uncommitted.
Impact on Operational Costs:
No new operational costs are anticipated.

• 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.
PARAMEDIC SERVICE ENTERPRISE FUND: The Paramedic Service is funded totally from
2011 projected fees of $5,646,856 with no county subsidy. Total expenditures include
$4,276,712 for salaries, and the remainder for services and supplies. The budget for new
vehicles is$433,413.
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 $7,769,505 in 2011, with $2,043,760 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 $2,800,000 for new equipment purchases, plus sale of
surplus items of$469,695.
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 2011, 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.

program is a combination of insured risks and protected self-insurance risks. Gross budget
costs are $1,850,000 in 2011, with a property tax levy of$1,500,000. Details of the program are
provided under the specifics of the fund summary.

Budgeted Positions 51 51 50 50
SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Personnel Services are reduced by the elimination of one
supervisor position ($98,360) and an $18,000 reduction in overtime. Supplies have been
reduced a total of $7,500; uniforms for $5,000, and operating supplies $2,500. Purchased
services are up $2,150. Fixed costs are down $33,081 in depreciation. Capital is up $10,000
for computer equipment. The budget includes three new vehicles ($433,413) per the fleet
replacement program approved by the Board in 2009. Gross costs are down $144,791, or
2.5 percent.
Revenues are down $144,791. Call volume is up, but transports are down due to increased
costs of service delivery, poor economy, and high unemployed and uninsured patients choosing
not to be transported. There was a 14 percent mid-2010 rate increase to adjust for the bundled
rate structure. There is no rate increase proposed for 2011.
FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval. The financial
position of the WCPS continues to be a struggle to be supported by fees alone due to bad debt,
as well as Medicaid and Medicare continuing to reduce reimbursement amounts. It will be
important to continue to closely monitor the finances of the WCPS.
BOARD ACTION: The Board approved the 2011 budget as recommended. The Board was
made aware by the Director of Budget and Management Analysis that 2011 will probably be the
• last year that the Paramedic Service can continue to operate without a financial subsidy from
the General Fund in the range of ten percent (10%) of operating costs, or approximately
$500,000. During 2011, discussions will be held to deal with the long term strategy of funding
emergency medical care in Weld County.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: The budget reflects the cost of self-insuring the dental and vision
• reimbursement plan ($248,000), wellness program ($181,000), and the on-site county clinic
($453,330). In addition the budget, in 2005, started to include the self-insured health program
offered county employees through Great West Healthcare, now CIGNA.
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 2011. It is recommended that the county absorb the entire
2011 rate increase, so employees' take home pay remains the same in 2011, since no salary
increases are recommended.
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 $20 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$453,330 in 2011. It is anticipated that there will be a savings to the insurance
plan of over$500,000, with a return on investment of at least 2 to1.

• 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 $355,700.
Effective January 1, 1992, Weld County became self-insured for workers compensation.
Workers Compensation includes excess insurance and bonds costing $350,000, claims
administration costs of$45,000, and a loss fund of$824,300. A loss fund for all other insurance
coverage is budgeted at $275,000. Unemployment insurance is being charged directly to
departments. The program is supported by property tax ($1,500,000), charges for service
($250,000), interest ($60,000), and compensation for losses ($40,000). No fund balance
reserves are anticipated to be needed to support the loss fund in 2011.
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.

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

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.

or ORDER A bill, ordinance, resolution, or order by means of which
appropriations are given legal effect. It is the method by
which the expenditure side of the annual operating budget is
enacted into law by the legislative body. In many
governmental jurisdictions, appropriations cannot be enacted
into law by resolution but only by a bill, ordinance, or order.
ARRA American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. This is the
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.
BOND An interest bearing promise to pay with a specific maturity.
•
476
BUDGET A plan of financial operation embodying an estimate of
proposed expenditures for a given period and the proposed
• means of financing them. Used without any modifier, the
term usually indicates a financial plan for a single fiscal year.
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.
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
results of operations. Such reports should be subjected to an
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 govemment or enterprise in
accordance with an approved budget for the purpose of
keeping expenditures within the limitations of available
appropriations and available revenues.
•
477
BUDGETARY EXPENDITURES Decreases in net current assets. In contrast to conventional
• expenditures, budgetary expenditures are limited in amount
to exclude amounts represented by noncurrent liabilities.
Due to their spending measurement focus, governmental
fund types are concerned with the measurement of budgetary
expenditures.
BUDGETED FUNDS Funds that are planned for certain uses but have not been
formally or legally appropriated by the legislative body. The
budget document that is submitted for Board approval is
composed of budgeted funds.
CALLABLE BONDS Bonds which are redeemable by the issuer prior to the
maturity date at a specified price at or above par.
CAPITAL BUDGET A plan of proposed capital outlays and the means of
financing them.
CAPITAL OUTLAY Expenditures for equipment, vehicles, or machinery that
results in the acquisition or addition to fixed assets.
CAPITAL PROGRAM A plan for capital expenditures to be incurred each year over
a fixed period of years to meet capital needs arising from the
long-term work program or otherwise. It sets forth each
project or other contemplated expenditure in which the
govemment is to have a part and specifies the full resources
• 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
Assessment Funds, and Trust Funds).
CAPITAL RESOURCES Resources of a fixed or permanent character, such as land
and buildings, which cannot ordinarily be used to meet
current expenditures.
CERTIFICATES OF
PARTICIPATION(COP) Form of financial instrument similar to a bond to facilitate
lease/ purchase agreements. Not a debt of the County.

DEFAULT Failure to pay principal or interest when due. Defaults can
also occur for failure to meet nonpayment obligations, such
as reporting requirements, or when a material problem
occurs for the issuer, such as a bankruptcy.
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.

current operating expenses which require the current or
future use of net current assets, debt service, and capital
outlays. The unmodified use of the term expenditures in this
text is intended to mean budgetary expenditures.

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,
or limitations.
FUND BALANCE Fund balance is the excess of assets over liabilities and is
therefore also known as surplus funds.
GAAP(GENERALLY

GENERAL FUND The fund used to account for all financial resources except
those required to be accounted for in another fund.
GENERAL OBLIGATION
BOND A municipal bond secured by the pledge of the issuer's full

GEOGRAPHICAL
INFORMATION SYSTEM(GIS) A computerized data base of all land attributes within the
County. The "base map" contains the least amount of

• GRANT A contribution by a government or other organization to
support a particular function. Grants may be classified as
either categorical or block depending upon the amount of
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
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.
481
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;
482
(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
personal services, contractual services, materials, and
supplies.
OPERATING BUDGET Plans of current expenditures and the proposed means of
financing them. The annual operating budget (or, in the case
• of some state governments, the biennial operating budget) is
the primary means by which most of the financing acquisition,
spending, and service delivery activities of a government are
controlled. The use of annual operating budgets is usually
required by law. Even where not required by law, however,
annual operating budgets are essential to sound financial
management and should be adopted by every government.
OPERATING EXPENSES Proprietary fund expenses which are directly related to the
fund's primary service activities.
OPERATING GRANTS Grants which are restricted by the grantor to operating
purposes or which may be used for either capital or operating
purposes at the discretion of the grantee.
OPERATING INCOME The excess of proprietary fund operating revenues over
operating expenses.
OPERATING TRANSFER Routine and/or recurring transfers of assets between funds.
ORGANIZATIONAL UNIT A responsibility center within a government.
ORGANIZATION UNIT
CLASSIFICATION Expenditure classification according to responsibility centers
• within a government's organization structure. Classification
of expenditures by organization unit is essential to fixing
stewardship responsibility for individual government
resources.
483
• OVERHEAD Those elements of cost necessary in the production of an
article or the performance of a service which are of such a
nature that the amount applicable to the product or service
cannot be determined accurately or readily. Usually they
relate to those objects of expenditure which do not become
an integral part of the finished product or service such as
rent, heat, light, supplies, management, supervision, etc.

PROGRAM An organized set of related work activities which are directed
toward a common purpose or goal and represent a well
defined expenditure of county resources.

programs of work and secondarily on character and object
class. A program budget is a transitional type of budget
between the traditional character and object class budget, on
the one hand, and the performance budget, on the other.
PROPRIETARY FUND A fund used to account for business-type activities in
government. The activities are usually financed with user
fees that are directly related to the services received. There
are two types of proprietary funds - enterprise and internal
service funds.

484
REIMBURSEMENTS (1) Repayments of amounts remitted on behalf of another
party.
• (2) Interfund transactions which constitute reimbursements
of a fund for expenditures or expenses initially made from it
which are properly applicable to another fund -- e.g., an
expenditure properly chargeable to a Special Revenue Fund
was initially made from the General Fund, which is
subsequently reimbursed. They are recorded as expenditures
or expenses (as appropriate) in the reimbursing fund and as
reductions of the expenditure or expense in the fund that is

TABOR(TAXPAYERS
BILL OF RIGHTS) An amendment to the Colorado Constitution approved by the
voters in November 1992. The Taxpayers Bill of Rights has
been incorporated in the State Constitution as Section 20 of
Article X. The amendment limits growth in both state and
local government revenue and expenditures, makes provision
for annual elections, and requires voter approval for tax
increases.
TABOR RESERVE Term applied to a reserve which is required by the TABOR
Amendment. Starting in 1995 this reserve is 3% of "Fiscal
Year Spending" excluding bonded debt service. This reserve
is for use in declared emergencies only.
TANF Temporary Assistance to Needy Families.
TAXES Compulsory charges levied by a government for the purpose
of financing services performed for the common benefit. This
term does not include specific charges made against
particular persons or property for current or permanent
benefits such as special assessments. Neither does the term
include charges for services rendered only to those paying
• such charges as, for example, sewer service charges.
TAX LEVY The total amount to be raised by general property taxes.
TAX RATE The amount of tax stated in terms of a unit of the tax base;
for example, 25 mills per dollar of assessed valuation of

The limit may apply to taxes raised for a particular purpose,
or to taxes imposed for all purposes, and may apply to a
single government, to a class of governments, or to all
governments operating in a particular area. Overall tax rate
limits usually restrict levies for all purposes and of all
governments, state and local, having jurisdiction in a given
area.
TAX ROLL The official list showing the amount of taxes levied against
each taxpayer or property. Frequently, the tax roll and the
assessment roll are combined, but even in these cases the
two can be distinguished.
TRADITIONAL BUDGET A term sometimes applied to the budget of a government
wherein expenditures are based entirely or primarily on
objects of expenditure.
