HUMAN SERVICES FUND SUMMARY
The Human Services Fund for 2003 is projected to increase by $379,649, or 3.75 percent, for a
total of$10,575,149. Changes are associated with increases to Head Start Programs, which help
with various needs of economically disadvantaged pre-school children and jobs programs, as well
as Area Agency on Aging, which includes a variety of programs for older Americans.
Being totally reliant upon state and federal funding sources, Human Services continues to operate
in an environment of uncertainty. The Human Services Fund's 2003 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 2003 budget.
The primary programs of Human Services are associated with the Workforce Investment Act(W IA)
funded under the Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. This program
is anticipating $1,173,000 for 2003. In addition, the Job Service contract will be for $561,000.
Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) is funded at $397,500, primarily for training of
TANF clients. The Welfare to Work Grant remains the same at $250,000 for 2003.
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. All Human
Services indirect costs are included in the 2003 budget.
Other programs of the Human Services Fund remain relatively stable programmatically with the
following 2003 funding levels:
Transportation $ 125,000
Supplemental Foods 1,184,000
Area Agency on Aging 956,000
Senior Nutrition 365,000
CSBG 250,000
In the above programs, Weld County must continue to be responsive and reactive to federal and
state administrative and budget changes in 2003.
The budget includes funding for Head Start programs totaling $3,006,000, with an additional
$2,200,000 for Migrant Head Start. The Pre-School Program is funded at $120,000, and all the
educational programs total $5,326,000, up $316,500.

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$4,500,000. It is recommended that this amount,
coupled with the approximate$2,000,000 carry-over fund balance in the General Fund be retained,
especially with all the uncertainty of state and federal funding and tax collections.
SOLID WASTE FUND:
The Solid Waste Fund is funded at the anticipated revenue level of fees at $1,425,000 with an
anticipated beginning fund balance of$1,200,000. Funds are committed to offset environmental
health costs,the household hazardous waste program($707,377),overhead($109,814),and trash
enforcement and pickup program ($64,972). A total of$440,000 is designated for roads impacted
by landfills.
CONSERVATION TRUST FUND:
The Conservation Trust Fund is budgeted at$374,000 based upon the anticipated operating costs
for 2003. 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 $3,000,000 has been established for 2003, which is greater than the required three
percent of fiscal spending.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Revenues from the Colorado Lottery are difficult to predict for 2003
due to a decline in the traditional lottery revenues that will be offset with the lottery proceeds from
the new Powerball game started in August, 2001. As a result the revenues are being projected
at the historical level of $360,000 for the lottery proceeds and $14,000 from interest earnings in
2003. The fund has a$500,000 carry over fund balance that allows the county to in essence spend
the proceeds one year after their receipt, which is a prudent spending philosophy for this fund.
Island Grove Park will cost $348,555, down slightly from 2002. A total of $25,445 is in capital
items, primarily for replacement of the swamp coolers. Since 2002, the Missile Site Park has been
funded in the General Fund.
OBJECTIVES: See criteria following Administrative Recommendation.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Revenues are up $125,000 due to higher utilization of the landfills in
Weld County,and the revenue potential from the opening of the new landfill(Buffalo Ridge Landfill)
in Keenesburg. The Buffalo Ridge Landfill will add less than $100,000 in new revenue in each of
the next five years. It will not ramp up to comparable revenues of the other landfills for five to ten
years, per the operator. Department of Health and Environment costs for the Household
Hazardous Waste program will be $707,377. Indirect costs are $109,814 for 2003. $440,000 is
requested for road projects to mitigate landfill impacts. Undesignated amounts of $102,837 are
in the budget.

CAPITAL PROJECT FUNDS SUMMARY
Capital Project Funds are established to budget for financial resources used for the acquisition or
improvement of the capital facilities of the county. A detailed Long Range Capital Plan for 2003 -
2007 is presented in this section and relates to the specifics of the 2002 capital project budgets.
The Capital Expenditures Fund accounts for various capital improvement projects for county
buildings. The 2003 program is funded at $3,925,000, with $3,625,000 from property tax, and
$300,000 from interest earnings. Anticipated projects include $2,000,000 for the Courthouse /
Centennial Center renovation for additional court space, replacement of the New Raymer grader
shed, an additional storage garage at the Public Works Headquarters, $125,000 for parks and
recreation, and $100,000 for special projects. In addition, $1,465,000 will be reserved for
construction of Phase III of the North Jail Complex. No carry-over beginning fund balance is
anticipated, but a $1,465,000 ending reserve fund balance is anticipated at the end of 2003.
Because the funds were budgeted and encumbered in 2002, the construction of Phase II of the
North Jail Complex that was started in 2002 will not appear in the 2003 appropriations. The project
will not be completed until the end of 2003. Based upon a study done by the Sheriff's Office staff,
it is anticipated that the additional 226-bed facility will take approximately $500,000 to staff and
operate with the closure of the Centennial Jail concurrent with the opening of the new 226-bed pod.
This amount is programmed into the five-year operational budget projections. The other projects
in the five-year capital plan focus on providing space for the courts. Maintenance of the space will
be a county cost, but operational costs of the court system remain a cost of the State of Colorado.
The grader shed is a replacement, and will not have an operational impact on the 2003 budget.
The storage garage will have a slight impact on utility costs, but not a significant impact.
The special projects are primarily cosmetic enhancements to buildings that will not impact operating
costs, but will improve the appearance and functionality of the buildings involved.

LONG RANGE CAPITAL PROJECTS
FIVE YEAR PLAN
2003 - 2007
INTRODUCTION:
Section 14-3 of the Weld County Home Rule Charter provides:
"The Board may require that the Director of Finance and Purchasing 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 2003 - 2007.
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. 2003 - 2007 Five-year Plan
4. 2003 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
2003 - 2007 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 2003 budget for the capital construction
program. It provides specific detail regarding each recommended project and the impact on the
2003 county budget.
374
FINANCING ALTERNATIVES
375
FINANCING
Overview:
There are a number of ways to finance capital improvement projects. Some of the most common
methods are:
1. Pay as you go:
Pay as you go is a method of financing capital projects with current revenues --
paying cash instead of borrowing against future revenues. Pay as you go has
several advantages. First, it saves interest cost. Second, pay as you go protects
borrowing capacity for unforeseen major outlays that are beyond any current year's
capacity. Third, when coupled with regular, steady completion of capital
improvements and good documentation and publicity, pay as you go fosters
favorable bond ratings when long term financing is undertaken. Finally, the
technique avoids the inconvenience and considerable cost associated with
marketing of bond issues, advisors, counsel, printing, etc.
However, there are practical and theoretical disadvantages to a pay as you go
policy. First, pay as you go puts a heavy burden on the project year. Second, it
creates awkward fluctuating expenditure cycles which do not occur with extended
financing. Third, a long life asset should be paid for by its users throughout its
normal life rather than all at once by those who may not have the use of it for the
full term. Finally, when inflation is driving up construction costs, it may be cheaper
to borrow and pay today's prices rather than wait and pay tomorrow's.
2. All borrowing policy:
An all borrowing policy or a substantial reliance on debt financing is another
approach. The annual available resources could be used entirely for debt service
with the size of the annual resources setting the limit crncuni ii ial 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.
376
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.
377
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.
378
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 3 percent
of the assessed value in the county, which is slightly over thirty 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.
379
General Obligation Bonds:
General obligation bonds are secured by a pledge of the full faith, credit and taxing power of the
county. The county is obligated to levy sufficient taxes each year to pay the principal and interest
of the bond issue. Consequently, general obligation bonds are a debt subject to the constitutional
and statutory provisions discussed earlier. Because the issue of general obligation bond pledges
its full faith and credit and agrees to levy the ad valorem taxes necessary to repay the principal and
interest of the bond, it is generally agreed to be a more secure investment than other types of
bonds. Thus, the major advantage of general obligation financing is the low rate of interest as
compared to the interest of other types of bonds. The law permits general obligation bonds to have
a thirty-year term; however, general obligation bond issues usually have terms of twenty years or
less.
General obligation bonds, in addition to being secured by full faith and credit of the issuer, may
provide additional security by pledging certain available revenues.
The major disadvantage of general obligation bonds is the fact that it does require voter approval
prior to issuance. Voter resistance to increased taxes may prevent a successful bond election.
Revenue Bonds:
Revenue bonds are not a debt in the constitutional sense. They are secured by the revenue
derived from the project to be constructed, not by pledge of the full faith, credit,and taxing authority
of the county. Projects typically financed by revenue bonds include airports, stadiums, and park
facilities. Under the TABOR Amendment, revenue bonds can only be used for enterprise funds
and operations.
Although it may seem possible to pledge any non-tax revenues for payment of revenue bonds,
there should be a relationship between the type of revenue pledged for payment of the bonds and
the project to be financed. Although revenue bonds need not comply with the constitutional
statutory provisions generally applicable to a debt,there are several statutory provisions which may
affect the issuance of certain types of revenue bonds and the statutes should be consulted for
specific provisions regarding the issue of revenue bonds if this method is considered.
Revenue bonds are considered to be less secure than general obligation bonds because of the
inability of the issuer to levy taxes to assure the payment of principal and interest. Thus, there is
normally a higher interest rate on revenue bonds. The term of revenue bonds is often beyond
twenty years, frequently as long as thirty years.
The concept of issuing revenue bonds is based on the theory that certain projects which benefit
only certain individuals should be self-supporting and should be paid for by the user of that project
rather than the populace as a whole. Thus, airport revenue bonds are paid for by air travelers and
airlines and parking revenue bonds are paid for by users, etc.
In order for a county to issue a revenue bond, the system which generates the revenues to repay
the principal and interest of the bond must:
1. Have a good operating history documented by audited figures.
2. Reflect good debt service coverage through use of a feasibility study
completed by a recognized expert in the field.
380
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 government to purchase the property
if the lease is terminated.
Also, some court cases indicate the annual rental must be paid from non-property tax revenues to
avoid the lease being considered a general obligation. Upon exercise of the option, the local
government obtains full legal title to the property. Leases of this nature are distinctively different
from more conventional means of financing. Of primary importance is the security which underlies
the lease period. It is not a promise to levy taxes or a pledge of revenues from the system. Rather,
it is usually a promise to pay only one year at a time, with an implied intention to continue payment
until ownership is transferred. As ultimate security, the holder of the lease may look to the asset
which is being leased in the event of a default.
There is little statutory or judicial guidance in the area of leases of this type, and the obligation to
continue lease payments until title transfers is a moral, rather than a legal obligation. As a
consequence, the underwriting or placement of a lease is more difficult than the underwritng 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.
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 General Services, each appointed for ten year terms.
381
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 that the interest on the authority's bonds is exempt from Federal Income
Tax. Such an exemption is granted if the IRS finds the authority's bonds are issued on behalf of
a political subdivision, which is determined based upon the following factors as detailed in IRS
Revenue Ruling 63-20.
1. The authority engages in activities which are essentially public in nature.
2. The corporation is not organized for profit.
3. The corporate income does not inure to the benefit of any private person.
4. The political subdivision has a beneficial interest in the corporation, while the
indebtedness is outstanding, and it obtains full legal title to the property on the
retirement of the debt.
5. The corporation has been approved by the political subdivision which has approved
the specific obligation of the corporation.
Like municipal bonds, bonds issued by a corporation usually are subject to registration and other
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Security Exchange Act of 1934. After receiving
a favorable ruling from the IRS, a "no action" letter should be secured from the Security and
Exchange Commission, exempting the authority's bonds from these requirements. The authority
then issues bonds pledging the annual rental payments as security. After issuance of bonds and
construction of the facilities, the authority leases the facilities to the county. Again, this must be
a bona fide lease and possess all the elements discussed under Lease/Purchase.
The bonds of a building authority are similar to municipal leases in the manner in which they are
viewed by investors. As with a simple municipal lease, building authority bonds are less secure
than general obligation or revenue bonds. As a result, bonds issued through a building authority
bear higher interest than more secure issues.
Certificates of Participation (COP) may be issued in the same manner as bonds. As a practical
matter the COP is the same as a bond, except from a legal point of view, the COP is evidencing
assignment of proportionate undivided interests in rights to receive certain revenues in the form
of a lease or rental amount for the purpose of providing funding for capital improvements. The
lease and COP do not constitute a general obligation or other indebtedness of the county within
the meaning of any constitutional, statutory or home rule charter debt limitation. The lease is a
year-to-year obligation.
The use of Certificates of Participation (COP)has been the only debt vehicle Weld County has ever
used in the implementation of its debt policy options.

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/Administration, County Attorney, and Director of
General Services 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.
383
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 has been 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 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.
Based upon a study done by the Sheriffs Office it is anticipated that by the year 2004 Phase II will
be required. Phase II will add 226 beds based upon the design. Construction of Phase II will allow
for the closure of the Centennial Jail and conversion of the space to accommodate Court needs.
Phase III will be an additional 160 beds.
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 will be 226 beds and will be both maximum and medium
security to accommodate the projected inmate classifications. It is proposed that Phase II be
constructed in the 2002-2003 time frame for full operation by 2004.
Financing:
It is recommended that the county budget $11,515,000 in the 2003 - 2007 capital plan budget for
funding of Phase III for 160 additional beds. In addition, $1,000,000 for operation of the additional
jail must be programmed into the operational budget plan for 2009.
392
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
Human Services, Health Department, Motor Pool, Public Works, and two 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($11,515,000)and Administrative Facility($5,000,000).
393
GRADER SHEDS/ICE CONTROL STORAGE BUILDING
Existing Situation:
The county currently has 18 grader sheds throughout Weld County, to accommodate road
maintenance function 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), and Galeton (2002). New
Raymer (2003) is the only remaining shed to be replaced. In addition, four ice control storage
buildings were constructed in 2001- 2002. An additional storage facility at the Public Works
Headquarters is planned for 2003.
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. Four ice control storage buildings were needed and one additional storage garage.
Financing:
It is recommended that the county budget $135,000 in 2003 to construct, maintain, and upgrade
grader sheds in 2003. In 2003, an additional storage garage at the Public Works Headquarters
will be needed at the cost of $100,000. The funding mechanism should be a pay as you go
function out of the Capital Projects Fund.
394
COURTHOUSE/COURTHOUSE ANNEXES
Existing Situation:
The Courthouse and Courthouse Annexes provide 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.
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 will be closed and remodeled into court-related space. In addition
all Sheriff's office administrative functions,along with Communications and Records,will be moved
to the new Public Safety Administrative Building next to the North Jail. 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 the five-year capital plan, three additional district courtroom
will be created, a juvenile courtroom, and one additional county courtroom. These courtrooms will
supplement the current vacant district courtroom and the visiting judge courtroom to accommodate
anticipated additional judges through 2008. The first floor of the Centennial Jail will be converted
into courtrooms and office space for Juvenile Probation. The second floor of the jail will be
remodeled in the future for additional court and office facilities. The third floor of the jail will be for
the work release program. First floor Centennial offices will be converted into office space for the
Clerk to the Court. The space in the Courthouse occupied by the Clerk to the Court will be
converted into a district courtroom. Space occupied by the Weld County Commissioners and
administrative functions will be converted to court-related space and District Attorney space after
these functions move to a new administrative building after 2010.
Financing:
Phase II of the North Jail was funded in 2002 for construction in 2002 - 2003. The new Public
Safety Administration Building was constructed in 2002. Once the Sheriff's office is relocated, the
Sheriff's administrative area and the jail will be remodeled in late 2003 to provide for the additional
courts and space for Juvenile Probation. Funds for all these projects are included in the five-year
capital plan.
395
PUBLIC SAFETY
ADMINISTRATION BUILDING
Existing Situation:
Due to 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 will be closed and remodeled into court-related space. In addition,
all Sheriff's office administrative functions, along with the Communications and Records, must be
relocated by 2004 to accommodate the courts.
Proposed Solution:
Since the entire jail operation will be 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
Sheriff's Office it is proposed to construct a 22,000 square foot office building near the North Jail
site. The building would house the Sheriff's office functions, Communications, and Records. In
addition the County Coroner's office could be located in the same building. This would allow 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.
396
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 located 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, 2002, 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 2002. The parking can be developed in 2004, and
needed facilities can be constructed on this site in the future.
Financing:
In 2002, 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 can be 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.
397
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 10 years. 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 will
be necessary to construct a new administrative facility at the Weld County Business Park in the
next 10 years. To accommodate the space needs of the existing administrative functions and plan
for future growth it is anticipated that a building comparable to the new Health Building will be
required.
Financing:
It is recommended that in the Capital Improvement Plan that the county begin to accumulate funds
in a reserve for the future construction of a new administrative building. Estimated costs for the
facility will be $5,000,000. In the ten-year Capital Improvement Plan $5,000,000 is reserved.
398
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.
399
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 2007. The primary reserve would be for a future correctional facility or other
facilities at the North County Complex and South County administrative office sites.
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 2007.
Financing:
It is recommended that the county budget fund balance carry-overs in the capital fund each year
as a contingency.
400
MISCELLANEOUS FUNDS
401
AIRPORT
Existing Situation:
The Weld County Board of County Commissioners, with approval of the Airport Master Plan,
committed to participate in certain enhancements at the Airport facility, especially those
enhancements that will ensure the safety of airport operations. If the Board decides to continue
to participate in the joint funding of the Greeley/Weld County Airport Authority with the City of
Greeley, funds should be provided for in the Long Range Capital Projects Plan to accommodate
the FAA ADAP program during the next five years. Funds can also be made availaule to maintain
FAA constructed facilities.
Proposed Solution:
In the Long Range Capital Projects Plan for 2003, $47,222 is 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 of$47,222 is included in the budget for 2003. State grants will account for the difference
to equal the $75,000 match in the Airport's 2003 Capital Improvement Plan.

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 $350,000 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, CRS, 1973). With the passage of
Amendment 8 (GO COLORADO) these funds should stabilize at $350,000 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$125,000 in the Capital Expenditure Fund from property taxes. On
September 20, 2000, the Board committed $100,000 for each of the next three years for the land
preservation and trail construction activities specified in the Saint Vrain Valley Open Lands and
Trails Master Plan. In addition, $200,000 has been earmarked for the Poudre River Trail. Only the
$125,000 from the 2003 budget remains uncommitted from the last five years of funding at the
$125,000 per year.

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 2002, $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 will be constructed and maintained jointly by the City of Greeley, Farm Show, and Weld
County.

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 Ambulance Service is funded totally from 2003
projected fees of $7,510,000 with no county subsidy. Total expenditures include $3,094,039 for
salaries, $3,004,000 for bad debt allowance, $200,000 for depreciation and the remainder for
service and supplies. The budget for new equipment is $200,000. The mid-year 2002 rate
increase of 2% is calculated to support the service in 2003.
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$4,332,572 in 2003,with$2,235,449 budgeted for new capital equipment. The budget
reflects the continuation of the contract fleet management approach adopted by the Board in
August 1984. Contract amount is $868,046 for 2003. Depreciation is $1,636,864 for new
equipment purchases, plus sale of surplus items of$375,000.
HEALTH INSURANCE FUND: The Health Insurance Fund reflects the cost of Weld County's self-
insurance program which includes dental and vision coverage. Details of the program and
coverage are found under the specifics of the fund summary. In 2003, the county will continue with
only dental and vision being self-insured. Health coverage will be provided by a private company.

program is a combination of insured risks and protected self-insurance risks. Gross budget costs
are $1,181,100 in 2003, with a property tax levy of$550,000. Details of the program are provided
under the specifics of the fund summary.

BUDGET UNIT REQUEST SUMMARY
AGENCY/DEPARTMENT NAME: PARAMEDIC SERVICE ENTERPRISE FUND
BUDGET UNIT TITLE AND NUMBER: Paramedic Service -- 5000-23100
DEPARTMENT DESCRIPTION: The Paramedic Service responds to both routine and emergency
calls for the county. It is an advanced life support (paramedic) provider. Personnel and vehicles
are stationed in Greeley, Evans, and Fort Lupton.

Budget Positions 48 48 49 49
SUMMARY OF CHANGES: The budget reflects an additional clerical position for added collection
and billing efforts to improve cash flow for the Paramedic Service. A 4% salary adjustment is
included. A major change is the bad debt allowance,which has grown to 40%of the amount billed,
due to the Medicare changes of having to accept assignment from Medicare. In addition, salaries
($95,892) and overtime ($92,024) were reduced by the policy changes recommended below to
reduce costs. The impact on staff will be the reduction to overtime and part-time staff. Other costs
are stable. Revenues are adjusted to reflect a rate increase that was recommended mid-year in
2002, and the small growth in calls.
OBJECTIVES: 1)To keep the Ambulance Service on a self-supporting (zero subsidy) basis; 2)
To maintain maximum possible collection ratios; and 3) To develop stable revenue sources.

FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: The Paramedic Service has experienced
a cash flow problem the last three fiscal years and required a cash infusion from the General Fund.
The problem has been caused by lower collections and the federal government requiring
acceptance of assignment of payment in full from both the Medicaid and Medicare programs. The
Medicare assignment began in April, 2002. The result is that only 40% of the charged revenue is
estimated to be collectible. Medicaid and Medicare patients are heavy users of the Paramedic
Services. Mid-year 2002 it was recommended to increase rates to the level of neighboring county
services, which the Board approved August 7, 2002. In addition, the following cost saving
measures were recommended and approved July 29, 2002:
411
PARAMEDIC SERVICE
(CONTINUED)
5000-23100
1. Reduction of eight hours of coverage in the Paramedic Service System Status
Management Plan, at a savings of $95,892. A 12-hour reduction would equal a
savings of$143,838. Only an eight hour reduction is recommended at this time with
consideration of going to 12 hours later, if the reduction in coverage is working.
Recommended.
2. Reduction of unscheduled overtime related to sick leave call in by utilization of the
Field Supervisor to cover openings created by sick call in ($25,440).
Recommended.
3. Elimination of release time for Management Team meetings for supervisors on duty
($35,467). Recommended.
4. Staffing of the contract paramedic school position with a full time employee versus
overtime ($31,117). Recommended.
5. Reduction and/or elimination of Community Outreach Programs ($9,458). Not
recommended. The savings does not justify the loss of good public relations and
community service for the Paramedic Service and Weld County government.
6. Elimination of indirect costs of the county to the Paramedic Service. ($308,318).
Recommend.
7. Increase in the rates mid-year to bring the rate up to the level of neighboring
ambulance and paramedic services. Recommend.
8. Addition of a clerical position for increased collection and billing efforts to improve
cash flow effective January 1, 2003. Recommend.
Weld County Paramedic Services is not experiencing anything different than all public and private
paramedic and ambulance services are experiencing nationwide in trying to deal with finances of
the service. Many services are fighting for their very financial survival due to the loss of revenue
from Medicare. The federal government is forcing a cost shift to other paying patients, but in many
cases the rates have reached a level that can go no higher in many communities. The result will
be services going out of business or being subsidized by general local tax dollars. Weld County
is not to that extreme yet, but the situation will have to be monitored. The possibility of Weld
County once again subsidizing the paramedic services of it citizens with property tax may be the
only alternative in the future. The service has been self sufficient since the late 1980's, but may
not always be able to remain self sufficient if the federal government does not pay its fair share of
patients covered by their insurance programs. Weld County must continue to be creative in raising
supporting revenues,while at the same time being creative at holding down costs,yet still providing
an acceptable level of service to the community that is geographically spread over 4,000 square
miles.

Budget Positions -- -- -- --
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 $231,000.
Effective January 1, 1992,Weld County became self-insured for workers'compensation. Workers'
Compensation includes excess insurance and bonds costing $70,000, claims administration costs
of $20,000, and a loss fund of $560,000. A loss fund for all other coverages is budgeted at
$300,000. Unemployment insurance is being charged directly to departments.
The program is supported by property tax ($550,000), charges for service ($200,000), interest
($68,000), and compensation for losses ($50,000). Fund balance reserves of $313,100 support
the loss fund.
OBJECTIVES: Provide county-wide insurance coverage in most cost effective manner possible.

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. The fund enjoys a fund balance of$1,990,000 to safeguard
against any extraordinary losses in a given year.

SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Budget reflects a four percent salary increase, plus the addition of
employees using health insurance benefits. Phone costs for local and long distance charges are
down $39,242, due to competition in the telecom industry, even with additional buildings and
phones. Depreciation is down $49,432 for 2003 with the phone systems for the Weld County
Business Park being fully depreciated. Phone maintenance is down $8,881. Overhead is up
$2,470. Contract services are up from the charge back of $41,633 for the PBX Operator from
Clerk to the Board, and a contingency for the new building costs. All other line items are stable and
reflect historical expenditure patterns. Total budget is down $18,487. This budget is a beneficiary
of all the competition in the telecom industry, as the over capacity continues to drive prices
downward. Expenses are fully recovered from revenues from users of the phone system.
OBJECTIVES: To operate and maintain all county phone systems, including research for
replacement, improved productivity, and other service requests.

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
recognized when they occur, regardless of the timing of related
cash flows.
ACCRUED EXPENSES Expenses incurred but not due until a later date.
ACTIVITY A specific and distinguishable line of work performed by one or
more organizational components of a government for the
purpose of accomplishing a function for which the government
is responsible. For example, "food inspection" is an activity
performed in the discharge of the "health" function.
ACTIVITY CLASSIFICATION Expenditure classification according to the specific lines of work
performed by organization units. For example, "sewage
treatment and disposal", "garbage collection", "garbage
disposal", and "street cleaning" are activities performed in
carrying out the function of"sanitation". The segregation of the
expenditures made for each of these activities constitutes an
activity classification.
ALLOCATE To divide a lump-sum appropriation into parts which Fro
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.
437
ALLOTMENT A part of an appropriation which may be encumbered or
expended during an allotment period.
ALLOTMENT PERIOD A period of time less than one fiscal year in length during which
an allotment is effective. Bi-monthly and quarterly allotment
periods are most common.
ANNUAL BUDGET A budget applicable to a single fiscal year.
APPROPRIATION A legal authorization granted by a legislative body to make
expenditures and to incur obligations for specific purposes. An
appropriation is usually limited in amount and as to the time
when it may be expended.
APPROPRIATION BILL,
ORDINANCE, RESOLUTION,
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.
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.
438
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 government or enterprise in
accordance with an approved budget for the purpose of
keeping expenditures within the limitations of available
appropriations and available revenues.
439
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 government 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.
CONSERVATION TRUST State of Colorado lottery funds remitted to the County for parks
and recreation use.
440
CONTINGENCY ACCOUNT A budgetary reserve set aside for emergencies or unforeseen
expenditures not otherwise included in the budget.
CONTINUING APPROPRIATION An appropriation which, once established, is automatically
renewed without further legislative action, period after period,
until altered or revoked. The term should not be confused with
INDETERMINATE APPROPRIATION.
COPS UHS Federal community oriented policing grant.
COST ALLOCATION PLAN Identification, accumulation and distribution of costs relative to
the provision of those services, along with the methods used.
CRS Colorado Revised Statutes

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.
441
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

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.

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

(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

expenditures or expenses (as appropriate) in the
reimbursing fund and as reductions of the expenditure or
expense in the fund that is reimbursed.
