GREELEY, COLORADO 80632 O�-NT t� December 20 , 2023 Weld County Board of Commissioners 1150 O Street Greeley, CO 80631 Board Members : As we begin 2024 , the County is in excellent financial condition with no debt, no sales tax , one of the lowest mill levies among all Colorado counties, a cash reserve , and a fully funded pension plan . The Weld County 2024 Proposed Budget for operations and capital outlay totals expenditures of $491 , 273 , 900 . The budget has been prepared in accordance with the directives developed during the existing budget process . The budget is funded with revenue estimates of $529 , 304 , 533 , anticipated fund balances of $597 , 910 , 160 . This includes the maximum allowed property tax under the Weld County Home Rule Charter of $289 , 043 , 174 , which is under Amendment One (TABOR) limits . 2024 BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS AND GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES ➢ Between midyear 2023 and approved 2024 requests , Weld County will add approximately 83 new FTE positions to meet growing demands. This includes the new Case Management Agency grant in the Social Services , Area Agency on Aging (AAA) program that estimates a need for 48 new employees , and a net decrease of 15 Sheriff's Office deputies. ➢ Increase facilities needed for the influx of new programs and positions . ➢ Continue the second year of implementation process for an Enterprise Resource Planning ( ERP) system . ➢ Continue efforts to control health care costs for county employees/dependents . A 26 % rate increase for the county and 5 % for employees in 2024 will be needed to ensure adequate funding . ➢ Increase liability insurance funding as insurance costs are increasing dramatically from 2023 to 2024 . ➢ Comply with new legislation making immediate changes to property tax rates because of SB23-303 and legislation changes after the defeat of Proposition HH in November 2023 . 3 The 2024-2028 Capital Plan for Facilities is estimated to need over $ 151 million for projects and maintenance improvements . Results of the Facilities Master Plan will potentially increase this amount . ➢ Fund the Public Works 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Plan . ➢ Maintain a fully funded pension plan with an earning rate assumption of 5 . 9% . ➢ New Sheriffs Office shooting range and training facility will likely open . ➢ Add bilingual pay differentials and employee appreciation programs . Conduct a comprehensive compensation plan review for fairness , equity and competitiveness of job markets . ➢ Continue incentives for expanding industry and commercial development in Weld County . 2024 FINANCIAL PLAN ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK The United States economy has been teetering on the verge of recession for most of 2023 . Inflation in 2022 and into 2023 was at the highest rates it had been in forty years . It is finally beginning to slow , peaking in 2022 at 9 . 1 % , starting 2023 at 6 . 4% , and expected to fall to around 2 . 5 % by the end of 2024 , according to Kiplinger. These inflationary pressures have a direct impact on the budget process and are seen throughout the budget expenditures requested . According to experts , the supply chain shortages that have plagued industries for the past three years has officially ended , but our departments still see long wait times on products and equipment , slowing progress and eliminating efficiencies that have been the standard for the past many years . Capital project contingencies used to be budgeted at ten percent or less . Now, materials for construction of facilities and road and bridge projects are seeing an average of a thirty percent increase from when budgeted the previous year, and even with those increases , offering a competitive advantage to meet our departments' requests within a one-year timeframe . The result of those delays in resources has slowed some areas of Weld County's productivity and impacted some projects . Some projects are taking longer to complete , and the money budgeted for those projects sits unspent. Vendors and some County departments struggle to fill positions with qualified workers and then must wait for the supplies , materials , and equipment needed to complete these projects to arrive . This has led to some fund balances increasing over the past few years . Departments continue to add to their workloads , which will lead to the funds being spent quickly over the next five years . Weld County has always anticipated fluctuations in revenues , with a significant majority of property tax income being from a continual shifting oil and gas industry . With political pressures coming down from Federal and State legislation to expand energy solutions away from oil and gas , Weld County must have reserves in place to maintain required levels of service and meet citizen 's needs . However, with inflation being high over the past year, Weld County is also in a position of seeing a 34% increase in assessed value between 2022 and 2023 . This results in a unique situation of Weld County exceeding the Home Rule Charter limit for property tax to be able to be collected in 4 2024 . To maintain compliance with the Weld County Charter, Weld County will only be levying and budgeting $289 , 043 , 174 in property tax . In order to levy and budget this amount , Weld County will need an additional , temporary mill credit for 2023 taxes collected in 2024 . Revenue received from taxing districts known as Urban Renewal Authorities will be reduced by $515 , 000 because of the additional mill credit given . Weld County has returned over $ 1 billion dollars to the community by keeping the previous 7 . 0 mills temporary tax credit in place for the past six years , and lesser credits over the past 20 years . In 2024 , assessed values specific to Oil and Gas are anticipated to drop by approximately 22% . From the graph above , Oil and Gas values make up approximately 65% of Weld County's total property tax income . The following graph shows the significant fluctuations over the years in assessed values and shows how imperative it is to have reserves in place as revenues fluctuate .

The main goal of the budget process is to continue to provide critical resources needed to meet Strategic Priority # 1 : Ensure Healthy, Safe and Livable Communities . Part of that structure is to evaluate the department budget requests provided and , if the information provided as justification for increasing services or staff is not sufficient , to remove the request from recommendation so unnecessary services are not funded indefinitely . Finance and Administration works together with the Board to provide a comprehensive plan and meet the county's mission statement : To provide responsive, innovative, and cost-effective services. The most important resource the county has is the employees that provide services to the public . Investing in that resource is a crucial way to make the county as effective as possible . Weld County has also not been immune to the recent "silver tsunami" and "the great resignation " . With Weld County being the fifth largest employer in the county, and the State Demographer indicating that the labor force will continue to slow, Weld County needs to be innovative in attracting and retaining talent . Weld County is finding ways to keep the fundamentals that keep the county fiscally responsible , while balancing the ever-changing needs for staffing and being a 5 competitive and attractive employer. This was addressed in the strategic plan for 2023-2028 which is included in the following pages for reference . Strategic Priority #4 , Be an Employer of Choice , will be one of the County's focuses in 2024 and years to come .

As one of the fastest growing counties in Colorado for the past decade , the slowing of growth will allow for county services to catch up to the population but can also mean limited resources in the future . This increase in service is directly tied to staffing and space to provide those services , which leads to increased base operational costs that future revenues may or may not be able to support . This fine line must be balanced to ensure resources are available for the needed services . In 2024 , Weld County will continue into Phase Two of the Workday Enterprise Resource Project (or ERP ) implementation . This will transition Human Resources and Payroll from PeopleSoft to Workday, and Finance and Accounting from Banner to Workday . One of the 2024 budget goals is to promote innovation and technology assistance , improving efficiency and effectiveness in all departments . This ties to Strategic Priority #5 : Provide Excellent, Cost- Effective Service Delivery . For the past eight years , Weld County has maintained a technology and innovation fund that is managed through the IT Department . Leadership continues to look at ways to improve customer interactions , review staffing models , and increase efficiencies through innovation and technology . In summary, despite the challenges and uncertainty that surrounds us , the Board , other elected officials , and managers must continue to provide strong financial and strategic leadership . This enables Weld County to provide critical health , social , public safety , and general government services to support our diverse and growing population . With the county' s elected officials , leadership team , and the entire county workforce , we will ensure that whatever the future may hold , we keep serving the needs of our residents countywide . The 2024 budget will recommend measures to strengthen our current financial stability and bolster our ability to weather what the 6 future will bring . Weld County leadership will bring forward a budget that demonstrates Weld County's continued creativity , resilience , and commitment to residents , but also a budget shaped by historical decisions and future strategies to continue Weld County's fiscal stewardship .

Oil and gas it production within the county continued at a steady pace for several decades . Then , in 2009 , a horizontally drilled well (called the Jake well ) surprised the e j a . oil industry by producing 50 , 000 barrels of oil in 90 days . 14 Horizontal drilling has brought new life to the energy industry in Weld County, 1 ' , and today , Weld has more oil and gas wells than any other county in the kstate , approximately 23 , 000 .

Weld County ranks number one in the state , and number nine in the country, in the value of agricultural products sold almost $ 1 . 8 billion annually. So how is this possible in a region that in 1821 , Major Stephen H . Long said would "never be fit for human habitation and should remain forever the unmolested haunt of the native hunter, bison and jackal "? The answer is irrigation . The Section No . 3 Ditch Company, which was incorporated in 1870 , is said to have been "the first ditch in the United States built specifically to grow food . " v • , :. _. In 1835 , a government expedition came through the ' �' - • " general area ; the next year a member of that party, Lt . Lancaster Lupton , returned to establish a trading post • lat y located just north of thepresent town of Fort Lupton . if tk J In about 1837 , Colonel Ceran St . Vrain established Fort St. Vrain ; Fort Vasquez was built south of Platteville in about 1840 . The latter was rebuilt in the 1930s under the Federal Works Progress Administration . The U . S . Congress took parts of the Territories of Nebraska , Kansas , New Mexico and Utah to create the Territory of Colorado in 1861 . All parts of Colorado lying east of Larimer County and north of the present Adams County were in the original Weld County, one of 17 counties established by the first territorial legislature in September, 1861 . Weld County was named for Lewis Ledyard Weld , the first territorial secretary; St . Vrain became the first county seat . During the first 16 years of Weld County' s history , the county seat was moved from St . Vrain to Latham (three miles east of present Greeley) to Evans , to Greeley, to Evans again , and finally in 1877 , returned to Greeley . A large segment of the Weld County region was settled by people of German descent who migrated from Russia in the early 1900s . Originally they came as railroad workers , but many soon worked in the productive beet fields and eventually became prosperous land owners . Weld 11 County' s Spanish-surname population began to arrive during the mid 1920s as laborers for the sugar beet industry. Weld County' s sugar beet industry began with the building of sugar factories in Greeley and Eaton in 1902 . In 1903 , another was built in Windsor, followed in 1920 by one in Fort Lupton and another in Johnstown in 1926 . Education Education has always been an important part of life in Weld County where 1. 2 school districts offer educational opportunities , all of which have earned a reputation for quality. �y �.

U o a_ 0 3 III O U _o to _o to _ u _ ►- to _Q 24 2024 BUDGET STRATEGY The budget strategy uses proven methodologies of dealing with past budgets and looking at future strategic approaches . The budget is based upon the following assumptions and approaches : ➢ No local property tax rate increases will be presented to the voters . ➢ In the 2024 budget request, any net county cost increase in a budget unit must be offset with a corresponding decrease in a department' s total budget. ➢ Unless a change is legally mandated , the county's share of partnership programs will not increase , it will decrease wherever possible . County dollars will not displace federal or state reductions . ➢ Program funded with state and/or federal allocation increases must be able to have a sustainability plan when staff or program costs are increased or be prepared to reduce staff or program costs if the allocation declines . ➢ Program managers and the public will be made aware of the proposed service reductions as soon as possible . ➢ Early warning sessions will be held in September addressing budget issues identified early in the process . ➢ Fringe benefits will be left at the current level of benefit. ➢ No salary adjustments will be included in the requested budget. The Board will determine any salary adjustments above the 2023 level in the Final Budget process . Any Department Head or Elected Official justifying to the Board a higher salary for a class unique to that department or office should include the additional salary within the assigned target budget amount . ➢ Any 2024 classification upgrades will be treated like new position requests in the budget process , with the department funding any requests within the target amount. ➢ There will not be any recommended increases in staff in the recommended budget to the Board . Increased workload will be absorbed by existing personnel wherever possible through increased productivity . ➢ Outside agencies that provide contractual services will be treated like county departments . ➢ Additional program options outside the overall budget plan will be proposed for Board consideration . Staff will explore the options as directed by the Board , and these options will be topics of discussion at the public work sessions and hearings . 25 ➢ A review of all discretionary programs will be done by the Department Head or Elected Official and the Board . ➢ All vacant positions in 2024 will follow the "sunset review" process to determine if the position needs to be filled . ➢ Resources for new activities will come from increased productivity and termination of existing activities wherever possible .

It can be both precise and unyielding as numbers tend to be , or as flexible as priority changes dictate . In the end , the goal of Weld County' s budgeting process is to produce a " user friendly" document, designed to enhance policy makers' , managers' , and citizens ' understanding of major issues , resource choices , and impact of the total budget . The budget is not only a financial plan , but a policy document, operational guide , and communication device . As a financial plan , Weld County' s budget includes all funds , presents a summary of historical and projected revenues and expenditures , describes major revenue sources , underlying assumptions and trends , and includes projected changes to fund balances . As a policy document, the budget includes a budget message articulating strategic priorities , describes budget and financial policies , and addresses long-term concerns and issues . As an operations guide , the document includes an organizational chart(s) , provides authorized personnel schedules , describes departmental services or functions , and includes goals and objectives . As a communications device , the budget includes a summary of budgetary issues , trends , and resource choices , explains the impact of other plans or planning processes , describes the preparation , review , and adoption process , includes a demographics or community profile section , and contains a table of contents and glossary of terms . Program planning at the department level follows policy formulation . All departments assess their programs , explore alternatives , design and define existing and new programs , develop program objectives , and relate present operations to the programs planned . The budget is then based upon the program , performance , and periodic program review . This process allows for the allocation of resources by program area and multi-year projections . The programs are then evaluated on an on-going basis through program analysis , review of performance , and an examination and evaluation of alternatives . This input then cycles into the policy formation process for a new budget cycle . The budget and management system is supported by the Banner Accounting System , fiscal control and cost accounting by program , and workload and performance management systems and reports . In summary , Weld County' s budget process is virtually a year-around process , combining months of planning , analysis , program and policy review , and constant monitoring . The adopted budget asserts Weld County's commitment to meet or exceed the community' s highest priority expectations at the lowest possible cost to citizens . In the end , the budget represents a balance between the political process represented by citizen input, policymakers , county departments and offices , and teamwork. The following two pages show the process graphically. 28 OVERVIEW OF BUDGET AND MANAGEMENT SYSTEM POLICY FORMULATION Analyze Community Needs Develop County-Wide Goals Community Assess Prior Year' s Long Range Planning Assessment �� Performance —► Capital Improvements Review Policy Alternatives Establish General Priorities Establish Fiscal Policy V r SUPPORT PROGRAM Accounting System PROGRAM EVALUATION Fiscal Control PLANNING Cost Accounting Program Analysis By Program Assess Program Alternatives Review Program Design Program Performance Define Program Objectives Performance Relate to Present Examine and Evaluate Measurement Alternatives S stems and Re orts Operations y p Revise as Necessary Service Delivery BUDGETING BASED ON PROGRAMS , PERFORMANCE, PERIODIC PROGRAM REVIEW Allocate Resources by Program Area Develop Multi-Year Projections Schedule Action 29 HIERARCHY OF BUDGET INFORMATION STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Budget Policies Implementation and Results of Budget Process Strategic Objectives Revenue Policies Major Program Goals Policy Directions Specific Revenue Assumptions Accounting Policies Policy Matters/ Investment Policies Points of Issue Capital Improvement Workload Data Policies Department Objectives Budget Guidelines Significant Changes Allocation of Resources DEPARTMENT BUDGET UNITS 30 SIGNIFICANT BUDGET AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES WELD COUNTY FUND STRUCTURE By Budgetary Basis Modified Accrual Basis of Budgeting Accrual Basis of Budgeting (Government Fund Types ) ( Proprietary Fund Types ) General Special Capital InInterna Enterprise Fund Revenue Funds Funds l 1 Public Social Health Fleet Health Regional Works Services Services Insurance Crime Lab 1 J J ®'t Solid Waste Human Insurance Telecom Services Services Conservation Weld Weld County Trust Finance Trust Fund Corp. BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING BASIS: The Weld County budgetary procedure uses the following Basis of Accounting . Basis of Accounting refers to when revenue and expenditures are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements . Basis of Accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made , regardless of the measurement focus applied . The governmental funds and expendable trust funds utilize the Modified Accrual Basis of Accounting . Under this method revenue is recorded in the year in which it becomes both measurable and available as net current assets . " Measurable" means the amount of the transaction can be determined and "available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period . Revenue susceptible to accrual , that is , measurable and available to finance the County' s operations , or of a material amount and not received at the normal time of receipt, primarily consists of 1 ) state highway users ' tax ; 2 ) property taxes , assessed in 2023 , payable in 2024 , and 3 ) various routinely provided services (health department) . Unbilled charges for services are recorded in the appropriate funds at year end . Expenditures are generally recorded when the related fund liability is incurred . 31 Proprietary funds follow the Accrual Basis of Accounting method , whereby revenue is recognized in the year in which it is earned and becomes measurable . Expenses are recorded when liabilities are incurred . Due to Colorado legal requirements , capital expenses are budgeted and appropriated in the Proprietary Funds . BUDGET ADOPTION: An annual budget and appropriation ordinance is adopted by the Board of County Commissioners in accordance with the Colorado State Budget Act and Weld County Home Rule Charter. The budget is prepared on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles for all governmental , proprietary and expendable trust funds . The accounting system is employed as a budgetary management control device during the year to monitor the individual departments (level of classification which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations) . All annual appropriations lapse at year end . The Director of Finance and Administration or Chief Financial Officer are authorized to transfer budgeted amounts within departments of each fund . Any revisions that alter the total appropriation for each department must be approved by the Board of County Commissioners through a supplemental appropriation ordinance . AMENDMENT TO BUDGET PROCESS: Section 29- 1 - 111 , C . R . S . , provides that, if during the fiscal year, the governing board deems it necessary , in view of the needs of the various offices or departments , it may transfer budgeted and appropriated monies from one or more spending agencies in the fund to one or more spending agencies in another fund and/or transfer budgeted appropriated monies between spending agencies within a fund . Section 29- 1 - 111 , C . R . S . , provides that, if during the fiscal year, the governing body or any spending agency received unanticipated revenue or revenues not assured at the time of the adoption of the budget from any source other than the local government's property tax mill levy , the governing board of the local government may authorize the expenditure of these unanticipated or unassured funds by enacting a supplementary budget and appropriation . Supplementary budget and appropriations require a two-thirds majority vote by the Board of County Commissioners . PROPERTY TAXES: Property taxes attach as an enforceable lien on property as of January 1 . Taxes are levied no later than December 15 and are payable the following year in two installments on February 28 and June 15 , or in full on April 30 . The county , through the Weld County Treasurer, bills and collects its own property taxes as well as property taxes for all school districts , cities and towns and special districts located within the county . In accordance with Section 14-7 of the Weld County Home Rule Charter, all ad valorem tax levies for county purposes , when applied to the total valuation for assessment of the county , shall be reduced so as to prohibit the levying of a greater amount of tax revenue than was levied from ad valorem taxation in the preceding year, plus five percent (5% ) , except to provide for the payment of bonds and interest . The Board of County Commissioners may submit the question of an increased levy to the County Council and , if in the opinion of a majority of the County Council , the county is in need of additional funds , the 32 Council may grant an increased levy for the county in such amount as it deems appropriate , and the county is authorized to make such increased levy . Any one capital project requiring a capital expenditure out of funds procured by ad valorem taxation equal to a three-mill levy for three years shall be prohibited unless approved by a majority vote of the qualified electors at a general or special election per Section 14-8 of the Weld County Home Rule Charter. With the passage of Amendment One (TABOR) effective November 4 , 1992 , the mill levy cannot be increased above the prior year mill levy , except by a vote of the people . In addition , the growth of property tax revenue cannot exceed the prior year amount plus inflation plus net new construction , without voter approval . 33 EXPLANATION OF INDIVIDUAL FUNDS GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPES: Funds generally used to account for tax-supported activities .

The "Budget Unit Summary" sheets describe how the policies impact operations , service levels and/or finances at the program level . In addition , comments on the summaries explain implementation issues and provide goals and workload and performance data for monitoring purposes . The "Budget Unit Summary" has been structured as follows to accommodate the governing board and public reader: • Department Description • Resources • Summary of Changes • Goals/Desired Outcomes/Performance Objectives/Key Performance Indicators • Workload Measures • Staff Recommendations NOTE: In accordance with Article IV, Section 4-2 (6 )(b) , of the Weld County Home Rule Charter, the Director of Finance and Administration shall cause the policies adopted or approved by the Board of County Commissioners to be implemented in the county as required by the Board of County Commissioners and insure that the activities of the departments are consistent with the policies determined and set by the Board of County Commissioners . 36 LONG TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING POLICIES Balancing the Operating Budget: The State of Colorado' s constitution requires all local governments to annually adopt a balanced budget. Balanced budget means expenditures cannot exceed available resources . No debt financing of the operational budget is permitted . Weld County' s policy is that under no circumstances will Weld County adopt a budget that is not balanced , even if the constitutional requirement is lifted . Long Range Planning : The Board of County Commissioners has adopted countywide strategic goals . The recommended budget shall , to the extent possible , based upon available resources , be consistent with the goals and objectives of the county' s strategic goals . The process shall involve identifying several critical areas which have or are expected to have an impact on the financial condition of the county over the next five years . Once the critical issues are identified , specific goals and objectives will be developed along with an implementation plan by impacted departments . Long Term Financial Forecast: Annually prepare a five-year forecast that maintains the current level of services , including known changes that will occur during the forecast period . If the forecast does not depict a positive operating condition in all five years of the forecast, the county will strive to balance the operating budget for all years included in the five-year financial forecast . Long Term Budget-to -Actual Trends : Annually evaluate trends from a budget-to-actual perspective and from a historical year-to-year perspective to identify areas where resources have been over allocated . This will improve the accuracy of revenue and expenditure forecasts by eliminating the impact of recurring historical variances . Asset Inventory : An inventory of capital needs will be maintained by the Finance department . The inventory shall include the identified needs , a list of projects , their cost estimates , and project timetable for funding , acquisition or construction . The recommended budget shall include a capital budget and a five-year capital plan with a balanced financial base for renewal , replacement, and new projects . The capital budget shall be adequate to maintain capital assets at a level sufficient to protect infrastructure and minimize future maintenance and replacement costs . Revenue Diversification : Weld County encourages a diversity of revenue sources in order to improve the County' s ability to handle fluctuations in individual revenue sources year to year and long-term . Due to the high percentage of oil and gas assessed values , Weld County also encourages the diversification of revenues for long range planning to minimize the dependence of the County' s budget on oil and gas revenue fluctuations in production and price , and long range depletion of the resource in the County . Fees and Charges : Unless fees or charges are established by state law or contractually, Weld County will establish fees for goods and services at full cost recovery , including direct and indirect costs , where the user of the goods or services has the ability to pay. All fees will be reviewed periodically to ensure that they are still appropriate . Fees will be available for the public and adopted by code in public meetings . Use of One-Time Revenues : Weld County has a policy discouraging the use of one-time revenues for ongoing operational expenditures . The highest priority for one-time revenues will be 37 to fund assets or other non-recurring expenditures , or to put the one-time revenues in a reserve fund . Debt Capacity, Issuance, and Management : To the extent possible , Weld County will pay cash for major projects rather than borrowing . Any existing debt will be retired at the earliest possible time during the life of the debt unless circumstances change significantly. Weld County' s debt level per Weld County' s Home Rule Charter and state law cannot exceed three percent of the current assessed value of the county. The current debt capacity is nearly $550 million . Debt under the debt limit includes all financial obligations over one year in duration , e . g . general obligation bonds , revenue bonds , certificates of participation , notes , lease purchase agreements , letters of credit, revenue warrants , long term lease obligations , or any other multiple-fiscal year direct or indirect debt or other financial obligation . Obligations for pension plans are excluded under Colorado state law. Stabilization Funds : Weld County maintains a prudent level of financial resources in the form of a contingent reserve , plus adequate fund balances for cash flow , to protect against the need to reduce service levels or raise taxes and fees due to temporary revenue shortfalls or unpredicted one-time expenditures . See fund balance policy in the policy section of the Budget Message for more details . Operating/Capital Expenditure Accountability : A budgetary control system will be maintained by the Finance Department to ensure accountability and adherence to the budget by restricting the expenditure of funds above the amount appropriated for the spending agency. Monthly financial reports will be available on-line through the accounting system for elected officials and department heads , detailing the progress towards budget compliance . These reports will , at a minimum , compare the current budget and year-to-year revenues and expenditures by department. Contingency Planning : Weld County supports a financial planning process that assesses the long-term financial implications of current and proposed operating and capital budgets , budget policies , cash management, and investment policies , programs and assumptions that will permit Weld County to deal with future contingencies in a reasonable and responsible way without adversely impacting County citizens . Strategic Investment Plan for the Future of Weld County : Due to the oil and gas boom in Weld County from development of the Niobrara formation , Weld County property tax revenue has increased . As a result, in February 2012 , staff developed , and the Board of Weld County Commissioners approved the Strategic Investment Plan for the Future of Weld County. A long- term strategy of investment in the county's infrastructure , technology and innovation , staff training and development , and economic development for diversification of the local economy can all have a demonstrable long-term payoff. A good county transportation system facilitates the movement of goods and services . Investment in innovation and technology will lay the foundation for new and more efficient governmental services being provided by Weld County government. Staff development ensures that the county' s employees have the skills required to provide the very best service possible to the citizens of Weld County. Investment in economic development for the diversity of the local economy will lay a solid foundation for long-term economic growth in the county and allow Weld County to be competitive in retaining and attracting quality companies and a labor force to support those companies . Weld County has to focus on investing rather than spending in order to ensure long-term economic prosperity not only while the energy boom is happening , but also when it eventually ends . 38 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT POLICY 1 . Capital Improvement Plan - A plan for capital expenditures to be incurred each year over a fixed period of several years (normally on a five-year cycle) setting forth each capital project and identifying the expected fiscal year for each project and the anticipated revenues to finance those projects . 2 . Capital Improvement Staff Committee - The Finance department develops a Long Range County-wide Capital Improvement Plan for all major capital expenditures within the County after surveying County-wide needs with program managers . The Board of County Commissioners is responsible for approving capital improvement policies , as well as , approving capital improvement programming as a part of the annual budget . 3 . Capital Assets - Capital assets are defined as land , improvements to land , easements , buildings , building improvements , vehicles , machinery , equipment, works of art and historical treasures , infrastructure , and all other tangible or intangible assets that are used in operations and that have initial useful lives extending beyond a single reporting period . 4 . Capital Projects - Capital projects are defined as those major, non-recurring projects that have a time interval of at least three (3 ) years between such expenditures and have a total cost of at least $ 10 , 000 . Purchases of real property and selected equipment may be exempted from these limitations . Examples of capital projects include : A. New and expanded physical facilities . B . Large scale rehabilitation and replacement facilities . C . Major equipment which has a relatively long period of usefulness . D . The cost of engineering or architectural studies for services related to a major public improvement . E . Acquisition of land and/or buildings . 5 . Annual Action Program - Those capital improvement projects from the plan which have been identified by the Finance department and approved by the Board of County Commissioners for funding and implementation for each fiscal budget year. 6 . Relationship Between Capital Funding and Operating Budget - Capital assets , which include property, plant equipment, rights-of-way, and infrastructure assets (e .g . , roads , bridges and similar items , ) are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type funds . Capital assets are defined by the County as assets with an initial , individual cost of more than $ 10 , 000 and a useful life of more than one year. All fixed assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available . Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation . The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets lives are not capitalized . 39 All reported capital assets , except for gravel roads , are depreciated . Improvements are depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the related capital assets . Depreciation on all assets is provided on the straight-line basis (asset value divided by years of useful life) over the following estimated useful lives : Buildings 20 - 50 years Improvements 10-20 years Infrastructure - Bridges 50 years Infrastructure - Roads 20 years Equipment 3 - 5 years Heavy Equipment 10 - 20 years GASB Statement 34 allows an alternative approach which would reflect a reasonable value of the asset and the cost incurred to maintain the service potential to locally established minimum standards in lieu of depreciation . To elect this option the County must develop and implement an asset management system which measures , at least every third year by class of asset, if the minimum standards are being maintained . The County has elected to use this alternative approach only for gravel roads . 40 INVESTMENT POLICY On March 5 , 2003 , the Board of County Commissioners adopted a comprehensive investment policy that is reviewed annually by the Investment Committee . A copy of the detailed investment policy can be obtained by contacting the Weld County Treasurer at (970 ) 400-3260 . The following is a brief overview of the investment policy: The County Treasurer is responsible for the investment of all available monies . The statutes defining legal investments for Colorado counties are Sections 24-75-601 and 30- 10-708 , C . R . S . Investment priorities are ( 1 ) safety , (2 ) liquidity, and (3 ) yield . In compliance with statutes , deposits/investments are made only in "qualified " financial institutions , i . e . , those which are federally insured by either FDIC or FSLIC . Further, any deposit/investment amount more than $250 , 000 may only be made at institutions that are designated as public depositories by the state bank or savings and loan commissioners , Sections 11 - 10- 118 and 11 -47- 118 , C . R . S . Such designation occurs when acceptable collateral is pledged to secure the total deposit. Deposits/investments shall be made in the name of the treasurer in one or more state banks , national banks having their principal offices in this state , or in compliance with the provisions of Article 47 of Title 11 , C . R . S . 1973 , savings and loan associations having their principal offices in this state which have been approved and designated by written resolution by a majority of the Board of County Commissioners . The Board of County Commissioners can designate , by resolution , an average annual rate of interest income to be paid to a specific fund or funds . All other interest income is deposited to the county general fund for the purpose of supplementing the county mill levy, thus reducing the amount of revenue required from property tax . The County maintains a cash and investment pool that is available for use by all funds except the Pension Trust Fund . Several of the County's funds also hold investments on their own account . The cash and investments of the Pension Trust Fund are held separately from those of the other County funds . Deposits: At year end , the estimated carrying amount of the County's deposits is nearly $575 million . Of this amount, approximately $ 1 million will be covered by Federal deposit insurance , and the remainder was collateralized with securities held by the pledging financial institution 's trust departments or agents in the County's name . Investments: Statutes authorize the County to invest in obligations of the U . S . Treasury, agencies , and instrumentalities , commercial paper, and repurchase agreements . The Pension Trust Fund is also authorized to invest in corporate bonds and mortgages . Interest revenue is projected on the basis of an average interest rate of 3 . 0 percent in 2024 . 41 FUND BALANCE AND RESERVE POLICY Weld County considers maintenance of adequate operating reserves to be a prudent management tool and important factor in providing financial flexibility to the County . A financial reserve may be used to address unanticipated revenue shortfalls and unforeseen expenditures . The reserves provide a first line of defense against deficit spending and help maintain liquidity when budget downturns become inevitable . The appropriate size of such fund balance reserves depends on the potential viability of the County' s revenues and expenses , as well as its working cash needs to handle seasonality of revenues or expenditures . The Board of County Commissioners adopted the County Fund Balance Policy on December 14 , 2011 , nunc pro tunc January 1 , 2011 . The policy was created to help reduce the negative impact on the County in times of economic uncertainty , major fluctuations in oil and gas assessed valuations , and potential losses of funding from other governmental agencies . The policy established minimum requirements for reserves and guidelines for the use of certain funds . The reserves and restrictions are also consistent with the requirements under Colorado statute or state constitutional requirements . The County Fund Balance Policy requires the following : • Any remaining fund balance following all restrictions and commitments in the Health Fund shall be assigned for future health programs for the benefit of the citizens of Weld County . • Any remaining fund balance following all restrictions and commitments in the Social Services Fund shall be assigned for future welfare programs for the benefit of the citizens of Weld County . • Any remaining fund balance following all restrictions and commitments in the Human Services Fund shall be assigned for future welfare , senior, and employment programs for the benefit of the citizens of Weld County . • The Contingency Fund shall maintain a minimum fund balance to cover a minimum ten ( 10 ) percent of the annual expenditures and maximum of twenty (20 ) percent of the annual total expenditures as determined by the Director of Finance and Administration to provide : ( 1 ) a reasonable level of assurance that Weld County' s operations will continue even if circumstances occur where revenues are insufficient in an amount that is equal to at least one-percent of annual expenditures to cover n ecessary expenses for public safety, public welfare and public works ; (2 ) there is a major reduction in oil and gas assessed valuations ; or (3 ) there are other unexpected n eeds or emergency situations costing an amount that is equal to at least one-percent of annual total expenditures that do not routinely occur. The Contingency Fund shall be funded by property tax . The Board may also exceed the balance of the maximum of twenty (20 ) percent of the annual total expenditures in the annual budget process if circumstances warrant it, such as oil and gas assessed valuation fluctuations . • The three-percent TABOR emergency reserve required by Article X , Section 20 (5) of the Colorado Constitution shall be a restricted fund balance in the General Fund in an amount equal to ten-million dollars or three-percent of the TABOR revenue limit , whichever is greater. 42 POLICY DIRECTIONS -- Incorporate Guiding Principles , Mission Statement, and Strategic Goals into the budget submission . -- Incorporate the Strategic Investment Plan for the Future of Weld County into the budget . -- Continue revenue maximization policy to support County services to users . -- Continue policy of identifying ways to minimize the reliance upon property tax funding . -- Advocate legislative positions . -- Examine County programs on a continual basis to maximize productivity and maintain current service levels with current or reduced workforce . -- Examine County programs and services to prepare Weld County for continuing financial uncertainties and future limitations . -- Utilize cost cutting/revenue raising strategies to hold down costs and support County services .

Wherever possible , those receiving the benefits of a government service should pay for what they receive in full through current fees , charges , and other assumptions . 2 . Continual search for new sources of revenue shall be made to diversify the County's financing plan . 3 . The County shall seek the establishment of a diversified and stable revenue system to shelter the County from short run fluctuations in any one revenue source . 4 . Estimated revenues are conservatively projected . 5 . Proposed rate increases are based upon : A. Fee policies applicable to each activity. B . Related cost of the service provided . C . The impact of inflation in the provision of services . D . Equitability of comparable fees . 6 . Programs funded by state and federal revenue sources shall be reduced or eliminated accordingly if state or federal revenues are reduced or eliminated . Local funding will be substituted only after a full study by the Board and if the program has a high priority to satisfy a local need . 7 . Revenue targeting for a specific program shall only be utilized whenever legally required and when a revenue source has been established for the sole purpose of providing a specific program . 8 . Revenue from intergovernmental sources with a specific ending date shall not be projected beyond the date . 9 . Looking at 2024 economic projections that may impact the 2024 budget , each department should anticipate inflationary increases within their proposed budget request . Assume interest rates averaging 4 . 0 percent throughout 2024 . 10 . Property taxes are based upon the maximum allowable under Amendment One (TABOR ) and the Weld County Home Rule Charter limitation . 11 . Assume that unless there is proven evidence to the contrary , federal and state categorical and entitlement grants will continue at the current level of funding . 49 SPECIFIC REVENUE ASSUMPTIONS OF SIGNIFICANT REVENUE Where appropriate, the local economic conditions and forward-looking economic indicators have been noted and considered in forecasting revenue trends. Property Tax: Weld County' s property tax revenue is very dependent upon oil and gas assessed valuation . The volatility of the oil and gas assessed values continues to be a major impact to the County' s budget planning , as it has been for the last decade . In addition , legislative proposals and ballot initiatives regulating energy development in Colorado continue to threaten the long-term viability of this portion of the energy industry in the state . Going forward the county will levy with maximum allowable , per Weld County Home Rule Charter and Amendment One (TABOR ) limitation . Specific Ownership Tax: Personal property tax on vehicles (SOT ) is anticipated to be equal to 2023 levels in 2024 due to higher interest rates slowing projected vehicle sales and how the new vehicles figure into the five-year sliding fee schedule . Building Inspection, Oil and Gas Permits, and Planning Permits: Although growth is still occurring in the county , due to the slowdown in the economy and decline in the oil and gas activity , permit revenues are anticipated to remain at the same anticipated for 2023 levels for oil and gas permits and building permits . State and Federal Grant Revenue: The budget is prepared at the signed contract level or anticipated funding level provided by state or federal agency. We can anticipate moderation in non-defense discretionary spending and some spending cuts in entitlements . Spending and revenue imbalances at the state and federal levels will most likely result in lower or, at best, slower growth in intergovernmental revenues for the county in the future . Charges for Services: Charges are anticipated to be up due in 2024 due to growth and inflation . Earning on Investments: Interest revenue is calculated on the average earnings rate of 3 . 0 to 4 . 0 percent, times the estimated average daily cash balances . Royalties: Based on analysis of oil and gas leases active on 40 , 000 plus acres of mineral interests owned by Weld County . These revenues have been up significantly due to oil and gas prices resulting from the war in Ukraine and are anticipated to remain high until the conflict seizes . Rental: All rental income is based upon signed leases . Overhead/Cost Plan: Revenues are based upon the 2022 Indirect Cost Plan approved by the Department of Health and Human Services that results in federal revenue allowable from grants . Social Services has been charged the full indirect cost allocation amount since July 1 , 2012 , which results in approximately an additional $6 . 08 million in revenues in this area . County Clerk Fees: Calculated on the historical level of activity , and legislative changes in the last few years . Treasurer's Fees: Based upon historical level of activity for fees , which have been growing slightly due to the statutory fee structure for property taxes collected . 50 Highway Users - Special Bridge: Revenue based upon signed state and federal grant contracts . Motor Vehicle Registration Fees: Like Specific Ownership Tax this revenue is anticipated to be the same in 2024 as 2023 , due to aging vehicles , offset by population growth . Highway User's Tax: Based on State Department of Highway estimates from gas tax less three percent reduction that Weld County has historically experienced . As vehicles become more fuel-efficient less fuel is purchased , thus paying less HUTF tax that is based upon a per gallon tax . This is offset by population growth in the state . Social Service Revenue: Based on anticipated caseload as discussed under each program plus state and federal funding formula for each program . Health Grants: Based upon contracts signed July 1 , 2023 . Health Fees: Based upon historical patient/client caseload with 2024 rates applied . With more and more uninsured patients , utilization continues to increase in the county clinic due to affordability . Human Services Grants: Based upon contract funding level as of October 1 , 2023 , State Lottery: Funded at the prior year collected level , with no anticipated legislative changes . Solid Waste Fees: Ten percent surcharge applied to historical waste volumes and input on projected volume from landfill operators . Proprietary Fund Revenues: Revenues for each Proprietary Fund equal funded anticipated expenditures in user departments' budgets . Severance Tax: Severance Tax distributions are determined by formula from the Department of Local Affairs , resulted from energy and mineral extraction statewide . The tax is specific to the energy industry employees that live in unincorporated Weld County , as municipalities get a direct allocation from the state . See the policy on severance tax direct distribution in the Public Works Non-Departmental Revenue ( Budget Unit 2000-90100 ) . 51 MAJOR REVENUE HISTORICAL TRENDS AND ANAL YSI S DESCRIPTION 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 Property Taxes $ 224,660,533 $ 225,047,613 $ 179,977, 118 $ 272,470,563 $ 289,043, 174 Other Taxes 12,970,000 12,800,000 11 ,710,000 19,060,000 16, 115,000 Fees 14, 109,600 16, 178,350 17,757,300 20, 182,750 20,884,000 Intergovernmental 67,679,862 67,669,679 99,528,078 82,401 ,677 87,038,715 Licenses/Perm its 6,880,000 5,366,500 5, 133,550 5,610,550 5,513,750 Charges for Services 11 ,499,426 11 ,544,735 13,365,291 14,633,248 14,821 , 103 Proprietary Services 33,706,303 35,298,521 36, 158,063 42,388, 112 52, 175, 161 Miscellaneous 24,559,545 28, 141 ,881 24,695,868 45,855,856 43,713,630 TOTAL REVENUES $ 396,065,269 $ 402,047,279 $ 388,325,268 $ 502,602,756 $ 529,304,533 TREND ANALYSIS Where appropriate, the local economic conditions and forward-looking economic indicators have been noted and taken into account in forecasting revenue trends. Other Revenue is made up of combining the categories above listed as: Miscellaneous, Licenses/Permits, Charges for Services, Other Taxes and Fees. Other Revenues are broken out on the following page. MAJOR REVENUE TRENDS 350 300 Property Taxes 250 Intergovernmental c C 200 f Proprietary Services 150 100 Other Revenue 50 0 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 Property Tax: Increases will track with the Home Rule Charter and TABOR tax limitations , which are growth in actual property value , plus cost-of-living . As has been the case for the last few years' growth and development activity directly , or indirectly, related to oil and gas exploration seems to be the main influence on the growth of the property tax base in the county. The volatility of the oil and gas assessed values continues to be a major impact to the County' s budget planning the last decade . For the 2022 budget, the assessed valuation dropped nearly 20 % in a reappraisal year, including a nearly 40 % drop in the oil and gas assessed valuation for the 2022 budget. For the 52 2023 budget there was nearly a 50 % increase in oil and gas assessed valuation due to the price of oil and gas . This leads to an additional 34 % increase overall in assessed value for the 2024 budget. With the volatility of production levels and price fluctuations of the oil and gas values , the county must continue to prudently manage the property tax base created by the energy development. Intergovernmental: In 2021 -2022 the significant increase in intergovernmental revenues was from the American Recovery Acy where Weld County received nearly $63 million in COVID recovery funds and an additional $9 million in emergency rental assistance . Most of the grant increases in 2024 are related to Human Services and Social Services as pass through dollars for programs . Proprietary Services (also referred to as Internal Services: Trends have shown predictability over the past few years ; however, inflation has led to large increases in Fleet, Health Insurance , and Liability Insurance to cover rising claims . This is anticipated to continue for a few more years until expenses stabilize . OTHER REVENUE TRENDS Er, 45 40 DC —1—. Other Taxes 30 # Fees 25 Licenses/ Permits 20 Charges for Services 15 Miscellaneous 10 5 2020 20 `l 2022 2023 2024 Other Taxes: Primarily made up of specific ownership taxes that tracks car registrations and severance tax, specific to oil and gas development and determined by the State of Colorado . The fluctuating trend the last few years is due to a new formula for the direct distribution of severance tax to cities and counties from the state . Severance tax revenues follow the price of oil and gas since that is where they are derived . The increase was recognized for 2023 and dropping again by almost $3 million for 2024 . Fees: Fees have been increased and new fees added . Fees from vehicle registration should increase as vehicle sales are projected to continue to increase and as the county' s population continues to grow . Refinancing of mortgages are decreasing Recording fees . Public Trustee fees were first budgeted when the Treasurer assumed the role of Public Trustee on July 1 , 2020 . The fees for both the Treasurer and Clerk and Recorder increased in 2022 and 2023 , stabilizing in 2024 . 53 Licenses/Permits: Planning initiates the majority of these revenues , with Oil and Gas WOGLA permits making up almost 10 % of the total and Public Works permitting making up almost 20 % . There has not been much growth anticipated , which shows a slight decline overall in this area for 2024 to reflect closer to actual historical numbers . Charges for Services: Revenue is predictable based on contracts for service and reimbursable projects . The continual slight increase is due to dispatch user fees at 40 % of cost recovery . Miscellaneous: This category is the most volatile of the Other Revenues . Categories such as Fines are included here and have decreased by almost 75% since 2018 . Interest income was very low over the past five years , with large increases budgeted in 2023 and 2024 due to rising interest rates . Health Insurance contributions added an additional $4 .2 million in 2023 and almost $ 10 million for 2024 . The policy decision to charge Social Services the full amount of indirect costs raised this category to $5 . 9 million in 2023 and $6 . 08 in 2024 . The largest jump was in oil and gas royalty income which went from $6 million in 2022 and $25 million in 2023 and 2024 . 54 DEPARTMENT/FUND MATRIX AND ORGANIZATIONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR BUDGET UNITS

To maintain this competitive position , Weld County participates in various salary surveys . Salaries are set by the Board of County Commissioners after full consideration is given to : • Current market compensation ranges from labor competitors within Weld County , the grade and step ranges of comparable positions within the organization , and compensation ranges from labor competitors outside the Weld County geographic region . • Comparisons are analyzed from other government entities (counties , municipalities , etc . ) , private sector businesses , and non-profit entities . Weld County positions are assigned a grade based on a multitude of specific identifiers as presented in the Weld County job description . The range associated with the assigned grade is then compared to the minimum , median , and maximum salary ranges from the comparison sources listed above . • There are occasionally positions within Weld County Government which do not have direct comparators available for analysis ; in these cases , Weld County Compensation analyzes both the " best fit" comparable positions as well as a blended analysis if one Weld County position comprises functions from several different roles in labor competitors . • Ability to pay and the sustainability of the pay long term . • Benefits and supplemental pay policies . • Supply/demand situations for personnel needs . • Supply/demand situation in the labor market . • Employees' expectations . • Retention of career employees . • Taxpayers' perceptions of pay and benefits . • Economic conditions locally and nationally . Salary Surveys Utilized : • Neighboring county websites • Employers ' Council • Glassdoor • Salary . com • Linkedln . com • Payfactors 62 In light of the economic conditions through 2023 , and Weld County' s focus on retaining qualified employees , the following recommendations are being made : • The 2024 proposed budget includes a 5 . 0 percent cost of living increase anticipated to help address the recent high inflation rates and the competitive job market . Employees are eligible for step increases for longevity and performance . • The 2024 budget includes $400 , 000 to complete a comprehensive compensation analysis based on job descriptions and duties performed to allow for improved rates of pay, career ladder progression , and growth opportunities within the departments . A small portion funds are being requested to address disparity issues mid-year 2024 to be corrected as quickly as possible . • Health insurance rates are expected to increase by 5 . 0 percent for the employees , and the county will pay an additional 20 . 0 percent for 2024 . This is following a 5 . 0 percent employee increase and 30 . 0 percent employer increase in 2023 . Health coverage will be provided by Aetna on a partially self-insured basis with a Preferred Provider Organization ( PPO ) option and a High Deductible Health Plan/Health Reimbursement Account ( HDHP/HRA) option . • Retirement costs will remain the same based upon the Board ' s policy to fully fund the Annual Retirement Contribution (ARC ) calculated by the Weld County Retirement Plan ' s actuary each year. • For the first time ever, Weld County is proud to offer a bilingual differential compensation program for employees who are required to speak Spanish as a part of their job . With over 21 % of Weld County' s citizens who speak Spanish as a primary or only language , our new bilingual pay differential not only provides better, more efficient interactions with residents , makes Weld County competitive with surrounding counties such as Larimer and Boulder , but it also incentivizes current employees to refer qualified bilingual candidates to apply for positions at Weld County and further develop their skills as needed to better serve Weld County citizens . The bilingual pay differential will go into effect in June 2024 and will require testing to verify employees ' proficiency as well as their manager' s validation that speaking Spanish is a bona fide requirement for their position . Other benefit changes recommended are listed on the following page . 63 OTHER BENEFITS BENEFITS COVERAGE: Employee survey responses indicated that one issue that will help retention is not requiring employees to bundle coverage of medical health insurance with dental and vision insurance needs . 2024 is the first year that this "unbundled " option will be available to employees .

The largest increases are specific to Elections , Engineering , Facilities , Public Safety Communications , Inmate Services , and the newly created School Resource Officer (SRO ) Program for the six unincorporated school districts . A total of 50 . 5 new FTE were requested in the General Fund , a 4 . 7% increase in staffing over 2023 numbers . The Sheriff's Office also removed 24 . 0 FTE from the jail and this decrease will help to cover a $3 million increase in contracted medical services , the new SRO program , and additional staffing requests in Investigations and Evidence . Public Safety Communications , or Dispatch , has a 4-year plan to increase staffing , with 18 positions requested in 2024 to improve service and effectiveness to all contracted agencies where guard terminal and dispatch services are provided . The net increase in General Fund staffing is 23 . 1 FTE , relating to an overall 2% increase in staffing . Elections has a significant increase due to legislative changes and three elections to be conducted in 2024 . Funding requests in this department are cyclical , with the largest requests in presidential election years to accommodate the needs of the department for safe and secure elections . Facilities continues to grow as space needs are expanding . Facilities budgets for the operating costs of all Weld County buildings , and maintenance of the buildings and grounds . County leadership is working on a Master Space Plan and changes are coming to how the funds are budgeted to improve the efficiencies in overall operations as needed . As a part of the strategic plan execution , Finance and Administration continue to work on the Workday ERP implementation . Part of the 2024 request includes increases determined to help Weld County be an Employer of Choice , Strategic Priority #4 . This includes a compensation analysis to review job descriptions and help make Weld County as competitive as possible as the fifth largest employer in the county. There are also expenses related to the Workday implementation , allowing for training and consultant assistance as the transition from Human Resources and Payroll changes to Accounting and Finance . Some of the larger increases in the General Fund are related to personnel expenses , such as a 5% proposed cost of living increase and a necessary 26 % increase in health insurance provided by the employer. With that increase , employees are being asked to pick up an additional 5% to their premiums as well . As salaries and benefits are a major part of the ongoing operating costs of the General Fund , this results in a larger increase of total expenses . Revenues for 2024 also increase to cover the increase in expenses . Revenues are budgeted at $232 , 082 , 017 , which includes property tax revenue of $ 173 , 787 , 486 , an increase of $24 , 418 , 483 from 2023 (or 16 . 35 % ) . Urban Renewal Authority shared revenues decreased by over $514 , 000 as a result of the temporary mill levy reduction in 2024 , and other revenues remained relatively stagnant for the year. Property Tax continues to be the main source of funding at 74 . 9% for General Fund appropriations . 100 GENERAL FUND SUMMARY OF REVENUES 2024 2023 2024 2024 2024 Fund Or .

No new positions have been requested for 2024 . The unit has diligently discussed staffing and work levels . In 2023 , one position was re-aligned to take extra work duties necessary due to increased need in the unit. The unit continues to utilize interns to reduce cost and assist as available . Purchased Services : As an increasing number of victims move toward on- line access , the cost of postage has been decreased . However, this cost could not absorb the rising increase incurred for phones and printing . It is anticipated that printing costs will decrease in the next few years as well . Of note , Weld County is increasing in diversity of culture and language . While the unit employs many Spanish speaking staff, the unit has noticed an increase in the need for language line due to uncommon languages such as Karin and Rohingya . Revenue : Revenue for the program comes from the following sources : VALE grant ($ 156 , 200 ) , VALE scholarship ($3 , 500) , VOCA Grant ($297 , 533 ) , VOCA In Direct Funds ($29 , 753) , VALE Administrative Fund ($ 75 , 850 ) , VALE Federal Administrative ARPA Funds ($9 , 100 ) , Crime Victim Compensation Administrative Funds ($45 , 000) . 131 VICTIM WITNESS ASSISTANCE (CONTINUED) 1000- 15300 SUMMARY OF CHANGES (CONTINUED) : The VOCA Grant for 2024 will be in year two of approved funding . While COLA and health benefits were estimated to increase and grant funds were requested for this increase , the amount of increase will not fully cover costs if health benefit increases are as high as 15 % . To assist with offsetting this increase , the District Attorney's Office will be submitting a VALE Grant increase of 10% . Last, both VALE Administrative Funds and Crime Victim Compensation Administrative Fund surcharges have decreased in 2022 and 2023 . This is due to compounding issues such as juvenile offenders are no longer charged assessments, more judges declaring indigency for offenders and waiving fees , less traffic fines are getting assessed , and more cases are diverted through diversion programs which do not pay fines . The Crime Victim Compensation statute is anticipated to be reviewed in the next legislative session and an increase in the percent of administrative allowance is requested . The final budget adjustments include an increase in salaries and benefits of $94 , 536 . FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval . BOARD ACTION: Approved as recommended . GOALS/DESIRED OUTCOMES/KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS: As a state official the District Attorney does not provide workload measures or goals in the budget document. 132 BUDGET UNIT REQUEST SUMMARY AGENCY/DEPARTMENT NAME: FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION BUDGET UNIT TITLE AND NUMBER: Finance and Administration - - 1000- 16100 DEPARTMENT DESCRIPTION: The Finance and Administration office provides financial and administrative support to the Board of County Commissioners .

The increase is slight because the Grant Manager position (Grade 40 ) is being eliminated and repurposed into the Fiscal Analyst position and increases FTE by 0 . 5 . Purchased Services was reduced by $50 , 000 as the additional position will remove the need for contract services going forward , budgeted at $ 100 , 000 in 2023 . The final budget adjustments include the new position at $ 155 , 751 and increases in salaries and benefits for 2024 totaling $37 , 287 .

Goal 7 : — Mobility Anytime / anywhere computing is a requirement for all technology enabled organizations . The ability to have a mobile workforce is critical in today's world , along with providing a mobile friendly technology environment that is functional across all types of mobile devices and operating systems . County departments and offices have the need to move seamlessly from the office , to the field , to home and beyond . This mobility needs to be done in a secure and functional way that is fully supported by the IT department and the associated application vendors the County uses to perform its specific functions . Goal 8 : — Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Information Technology provides the foundation for many of the County's critical services . Disaster recovery and business continuity planning are a part of every successful organization . Determining mission critical IT services is a collaborative process and involves all departments and offices within the County. We must be able to communicate , process critical County functions such as payroll , and deliver services to the citizens of Weld County during disasters . The ability to recover critical services is dependent upon hardware , software and key personnel . An environment that is geographically located far enough from the County is ideal and should take into account a regional type of disaster. A detailed DR/BC plan should be developed and then reviewed annually by IT, County departments and the Commissioners . Goal 9 : — Geographic Information Systems (GIS) The GIS domain is a strategic enterprise platform of technology with a high operational impact. Its users seek to create , collect, maintain and distribute high quality, accurate and complete geospatial data and services . The County will raise the awareness of both the beneficial business applications of GIS and seek to cultivate the advanced analytical use of the technology amongst its users .

With the underfunding of the Weld County Retirement Plan the Board decided to reimburse the Retirement Fund for the administrative costs of the plan . The administrative costs include the investment fees and other administrative costs . Annually the costs are approximately $ 1 , 000 , 000 . The County stopped paying the fees in the 1980's . From 2011 -2015 the General Funds made substantial contributions to repay the Retirement Fund for the past administrative costs . As of December 31 , 2015 , the Weld County Retirement Plan was fully funded under the new accounting rules of GASB 67 and 68 . The level of funding for this purpose can be reduced in years where the property tax revenues from oil and gas fluctuate downward and when the retirement fund is fully funded . Due the retirement plan being totally funded , no contribution is required in the 2023 budget. The investment rate assumption will be 5 . 90% as of December 31 , 2021 . The 5 . 90% rate is much more realistic based upon projected investment returns for the Plan . FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval .

This fund is also utilized for allocation of monies to cities and towns for use in their road and street activities . The resources for 2024 total $312 , 599 , 213 which includes a fund balance of $229 , 991 , 268 . Property tax is set at $ 15 , 000 , 000 , the same as 2023 . Specific Ownership tax is estimated to remain at $ 11 , 600 , 000 . Total HUTF will be $ 11 , 991 , 000 , a $941 , 000 increase from 2023 . Permit revenues and Motor Vehicle Registration Fees are budgeted at $950 , 000 and $400 , 000 , respectively , remaining the same as 2023 . Grazing fees are $8 , 000 , 000 , which is $ 1 . 5 million higher than budgeted in 2023 . Oil and gas revenues are $25 , 000 , 000 , which reflects a $500 , 000 decrease from what was budgeted in 2023 . There is $400 , 00 from Solid Waste Fund for roads impacted by the landfills . Federal mineral lease revenues are $ 1 , 200 , 000 due to the creation of the Weld County Federal Mineral Lease District . The federal mineral lease revenue will flow through the district and then Public Works will apply to the district for funding of projects . In 2024 , the district is funding $ 1 , 200 , 000 in oil and gas haul route projects . PILT is budgeted at $88 , 500 remaining the same as expected in 2023 . Severance tax is budgeted at $4 , 425 , 000 . In accordance with 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 . Grant Revenue is budgeted at $3 , 553 , 445 and includes the Energy Impact Assistance grants which are expected to total $ 1 , 500 , 000 . There is a State grant for Bridge 19/46 . 5A for $500 , 000 , CMAQ through CDOT grant of $953 , 445 for the intersection improvements at Hwy 52 and WCR 41 , and an additional $600 , 000 expected from CDOT for the intersection improvements at Hwy 392 and WCR 35 . The budgeted appropriations for Public Works in 2024 total $77 , 115 , 128 and is down $4 , 067 , 362 from 2023 . The decrease reflects difficulty in getting workers and supplies to complete projects in a timely manner, causing projects to take longer to complete , and less time available to start new projects in future years until the existing projects are completed . Increases in the uniform allowance and safety program incentives were included once approved by the board . All other requests were approved , with reclassifications approved at the Human Resources' reviewed levels . While the growth in the County's assessed value and economic stimulus of the energy industry in Weld County has been positive in recent years , the downside is the County has had to add significant resources to the Public Works budget to accommodate heavy hauling traffic, address safety issues , and improve roads impacted by the oil and gas industry's heavy hauling on county roads due to new exploration and population growth . A five-year Public Works Capital Improvement Plan will continue to be updated annually and will ensure a fair and reasonable determination of project priorities in accordance with the County's overall transportation needs , especially in dealing with the impact of energy development and population growth in the County. As oil and gas prices and production stabilize , looking forward to 2024 and beyond , the amount spent on capital projects should also be stable . The 2024 Public Works Capital Improvements Plan is available on the County web site at https : //www.weld . gov/Government/Departments/Public-Works/Transportation- Planning . 260 CONCERNING LOCAL ACCOUNTABILITY FOR MONEY USED FOR HIGHWAY PURPOSES In accordance with Section 29- 1 - 110 , C .

The programs are funded by property tax of $ 13 , 220 , 379 and state and federal funds of $37 , 191 , 840 , and the potential use of fund balance to cover both anticipated and unanticipated cost overruns . The aftermath of the lockdowns associated with the COVID- 19 Public Health Emergency ( PHE ) continue to impact the administration of our programs . Although the pandemic is officially ended , the households who were enrolled in some Federal benefit programs were granted exceptions from some requirements that normally exist. As these households attempt to re-enroll for these benefits , they are understandably confused as to what is now required of them , which was not required during the pandemic. As a result, the average time required for our Eligibility Technicians to properly determine these households' eligibility and benefit level has increased , substantially . This , combined with the increased caseload that results from a struggling economy , has made it necessary for counties across the State of Colorado to increase the number of Eligibility Technicians in order to keep up with the need for services . The Weld County Area Agency on Aging has applied for and been awarded the Case Management Agency grant from the Colorado Department of Health Care and Financing ( HCPF ) . This grant provides all case management services for numerous health care-related programs and waiver programs, previously managed by various entities . The implementation date for this grant has not yet been determined , but will be in late 2023 or early-to-mid 2024 . In order to complete this implementation , the Department will need to hire an additional 40-50 Case Manager, supervisor, and support positions . Our initial indication is that the revenues earned from HCPF will be sufficient to fully reimburse the increased costs this will drive . We will monitor the sufficiency of these revenues closely to ensure that staffing levels are both adequate and affordable . In 2021 , the Department established the High Fidelity Wraparound unit, within the Family Resource Division . The unit has been funded through a grant from the Colorado Department of Human Services' Office of Behavioral Health . The unit works to preserve and rehabilitate families while addressing mental and behavioral health needs . The original grant ended on June 30 , 2023 . Therefore , the Department has secured additional funding from the Office of Behavioral Health and from the Tony Grampsas Youth Services program to continue the program through June 30 , 2024 . The Family Resource Division also continues to receive funding from the Emergency Rental Assistance program . We have amended the focus of our program to provide case management services to families experiencing difficulty, in an effort to assist them in achieving self-sufficiency. We continue to monitor the impacts of House Bills 22- 1259 and 22- 1295 on the Colorado Works and Child Care Assistance Programs , respectively. Although the increase in expenditures resulting from these acts has been manageable , to this point, our concerns regarding the ability of available funding to support these increases continue . We will continue to make programmatic changes and/or seek increased funding from our State partners, as necessary . 288 SOCIAL SERVICES FUND ESTIMATED REVENUE 2024 FEDERAL AND STATE COUNTY TOTAL County Administration $ 10,263 ,223 $ 5 ,350,296 $ 15 ,613 , 519 Non-Program Revenue 0 - 150,000 - 150,000 Other Programs 316,500 10, 000 326, 500 Child Support Administration 3 ,000, 000 860,000 3 , 860,000 TANF-Colorado Works 3 ,629 , 917 1 ,485 ,083 5 , 115 ,000 Aid to the Needy Disabled 0 90, 000 90,000 Child Care 1 , 160,000 750,000 1 ,910, 000 Old Age Pension 392 ,200 10,000 402 ,200 Child Welfare 14, 750,000 4,200, 000 18 ,950, 000 Core Services 2 ,200, 000 700,000 2 , 900,000 Adult Protective Services 1 ,030, 000 300,000 1 , 330,000 LEAP 50,000 0 50,000 General Assistance 0 15 ,000 15 ,000 Sub-Total $ 36,791 840 $ 13 ,620,3 79 $ 50,412,219 Federal/State Reimbursement $ 3 6, 791 , 840 Claims Collection Incentives 180,693 TANF Adjustment 219 ,307 Usage of Deferred Revenues 0 Sub-Total Revenue $ 37 , 191 840 Potential Use of Fund Balance 0 County Property Tax / Penalties 13 ,220, 379 Total Revenue $ 50,412,219 289 SOCIAL SERVICES FUND MANDATED FEDERAL AND STATE PROGRAMS Assistance Payment Programs : Most assistance payment programs are mandated by the federal or state government. Consequently, local government is limited as to what can be done to reduce costs from these programs . Federally State Mandated Mandated Temporary Assistance to Needy Families — Colorado Works X X Aid to the Needy Disabled X Old Age Pension X General Assistance* Optional Optional * State law allows counties the option of having a general assistance program and , if established , to determine the benefit level . Social Service Programs : Social service programs administered by the department are mandated by federal or state law; however, local governments have a higher degree of managerial flexibility with these programs . Federally State Mandated Mandated Child Protection — Casework Services X X Youth Services — Casework Services X X Administration : Costs associated with administration include compensation for direct services through caseworkers , technicians and support staff. In addition , overhead such as rent, utilities , travel , supplies , and equipment are funded through administrative allocations . The 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 reimbursed . Generally, they are at least partially reimbursed through the use of transferred TANF funds , surplus distribution , or Federal pass-thru revenues . 290 SOCIAL SERVICES SUMMARY OF REVENUES 2024 2023 2024 2024 2024 Fund Or g Acct Account Title Budget Rec nest Recommend Final TAXES 2100 42111 4112 CURRENT PROPERTY TAXES 13, 101 ,560 13,220,379 13,220,379 13,220,379 INTERGOVERNMENTAL 2100 42110 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 8 ,887 , 754 10 ,263 ,223 10 ,263 ,223 10 ,263 ,223 2100 42111 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 635, 086 400 , 000 400 , 000 400 , 000 2100 42115 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 270 , 000 316 , 500 316 , 500 316 , 500 2100 42200 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 2 ,800 , 000 3 , 000 , 000 3 , 000 , 000 3 , 000 , 000 2100 42365 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 2 ,672 , 917 3 ,629 , 917 3 ,629 , 917 3 ,629 , 917 2100 42375 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 1 ,270 ,000 1 , 160 , 000 1 , 160 , 000 1 , 160 , 000 2100 42380 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 347 , 500 392 ,200 392 ,200 392 ,200 2100 42410 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 13 , 575 , 000 14 , 750 , 000 14 , 750 , 000 14 , 750 , 000 2100 42415 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 1 ,899 , 700 2 ,200 , 000 2 ,200 , 000 2 ,200 , 000 2100 42450 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 854 , 000 1 , 030 , 000 1 , 030 , 000 1 , 030 , 000 2100 42610 4336 REIMBURSEMENTS 0 50 , 000 50 , 000 50 , 000 TOTAL INTERGOVERMENTAL 33,211 ,957 37, 191 ,840 37, 191 ,840 37, 191 ,840 TOTAL SOCIAL SERVICES 46,313,517 50,412,219 50,412,219 50,412,219 291 SOCIAL SERVICES SUMMARY OF EXPENDITURES 2024 2023 2024 2024 2024 Fund Org Expenditure Function Budget Request Recommend Final 2100 42110 ADMINISTRATION-REGULAR 15, 117 ,617 15 ,613 , 519 15 ,613 , 519 15,613 , 519 2100 42111 NON PROGRAM REVENUE -208 ,200 - 150 , 000 - 150 , 000 - 150 , 000 2100 42115 OTHER PROGRAMS 260 , 000 326 , 500 326 , 500 326 , 500 2100 42200 CHILD SUPPORT ADMINISTRATION 3 , 532 ,400 3 ,860 , 000 3 , 860 , 000 3 , 860 , 000 2100 42365 COLORADO WORKS 4 , 158 , 000 5, 115, 000 5, 115, 000 5, 115 , 000 2100 42370 NEEDY AND DISABLED 84 , 100 90 ,000 90 , 000 90 , 000 2100 42375 DAY CARE & ADMINISTRATION 1 ,861 ,450 1 , 910 , 000 1 , 910 , 000 1 , 910 , 000 2100 42380 OLD AGE PENSION 356 , 950 402 ,200 402 ,200 402 ,200 2100 42410 CHILD WELFARE & ADMINISTRATION 17 ,210 , 000 18 , 950 , 000 18 , 950 , 000 18 , 950 , 000 2100 42415 PLACEMENT ALTERNATIVE CARE 2 , 711 ,200 2 , 900 , 000 2 , 900 , 000 2 , 900 , 000 2100 42450 ADULT PROTECTION 1 ,220 , 000 1 , 330 , 000 1 , 330 , 000 1 ,330 , 000 2100 42610 LEAP ADMINISTRATION 0 50 , 000 50 , 000 50 , 000 2100 42700 GENERAL ASSISTANCE 10 , 000 15, 000 15, 000 15, 000 2100 427000 COMMON SUPPORT 46,313,517 50,412,219 50,412,219 50,412,219 292 BUDGET UNIT REQUEST SUMMARY AGENCY/DEPARTMENT NAME: SOCIAL SERVICES BUDGET UNIT TITLE AND NUMBER: Summary - - All Departments - - Fund 2100 DEPARTMENT DESCRIPTION: See individual units .

Vision : Everyone in Weld County has the opportunity to live their healthiest lives . Values : Determination * Excellence * Integrity Department Summary The Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment (WCDPHE ) provides for the health , safety, and welfare of Weld County citizens through the seven core Public Health Services established by the State Board of Health and ten essential Public Health Services . The department plays a key role in administering federal , state , and local programs and services in our local communities on which our residents rely every day . ADMI N ISTRATION AND GOVERNANCE VITAL RECORDS ASSESSMENT, AND STATISTICS PLANNING AND COMMUNICATION CORE PREVENTION AND I PUBLIC HEALTH COMMUNICABLE POPULATION IN COLORADO DISEASE HEALTH PREVENTION, PROMOTION INVESTIGATION AND CONTROL ENVIRONMENTAL EMERGENCY HEALTH PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE The department continually uses local data collected through its Community Health Survey to help drive strategic planning , partner engagement , and efforts to address public health issues in Weld County . As a nationally accredited health department , WCDPHE is committed to leading population health improvement via a chief community health strategist approach where the department engages with various external community groups and organizations to help address emerging and chronic health issues . dnealth 0 'so i � lc? PI—IAB Advancing 1:5 Public Health Cr Performance 0 ess �•o rip We La ' ,Accreds 322 WCDHE will begin development of a new three-year strategic plan in 2024 . Areas of focus in 2024 and beyond include continuing to strive to provide outstanding customer service at every point of interaction with our customers , recruiting , and retaining qualified staff, providing coaching and educational tools to emerging leaders within the department , and ensuring the department is prepared to provide public health services to a growing population . While safeguarding the public's health and well-being , the WCDPHE team continues to be responsible stewards of public funds . The FY 2024 budget proposal continues to reflect the department's fiscally conservative approach to carefully managing the county's tax dollars and available state , federal and private financial resources as they provide high-quality , cost-efficient , and readily accessible services to residents and businesses in Weld County . Proposed Budget The Health Department's 2024 proposed expenditures are $ 13 , 877 , 147 , anticipated revenues are $7 , 841 , 855 , and net county cost is targeted at $6 , 035 , 292 , as determined by the Weld County Director of Finance and Administration and the Board of County Commissioners . The department's available funding is allocated among its four divisions : Clinical and Community Health Services , Health Education Communication & Planning , Environmental Health Services [including Emergency Preparedness] , and Public Health Finance [including Vital Records] . 2024 Budget Highlights Revenues across the department are projected to decrease by $ 1 , 517 , 168 in 2024 . This is primarily attributable to reduced funding for COVID- 19 related activities . The department will benefit from increased federal pass-through and state funding as a result of initiatives that focus on investment in building core public health infrastructure and capacity to create resilient local public health systems nationwide . Locally , the department will be using this funding to support work force development activities including staff development and increasing staff capacity . The Clinical and Community Health Divisions will see significant increases in grant revenue in the Nurse Family Partnership and Family Planning programs . In our Emergency Preparedness section , the FY 2024 budget reflects continued state and federal funding for preparedness activities focusing on strategies to address surge needs to respond rapidly and effectively to future pandemics and other high consequence public health threats . The 2024 budget reflects a reduction of 16 . 3 full time equivalents ( FTEs) due to the cessation of COVID- 19 response activities . This brings the projected number of employees for FY2024 to 98 . 9 FTEs . Projected costs for supplies and purchased services decreased substantially , again as a result of the elimination of COVID- 19 response activities . Core department functions and services available to customers remain at levels similar to 2023 . 323 PUBLIC HEALTH SUMMARY OF REVENUES 2024 2023 2024 2024 2024 Fund Or g Acct Account Title Budget

Increased personnel costs are offset by cuts to non- personnel budget expenses ($469 , 898 in cuts to non- personnel expenses) . The division also has an increase in payroll with the net addition of 1 . 575 FTE , resulting from a 2023 mid -year addition of a new Substance Use Disorder Health Educator in our Opioids Abatement grant and from shifting the Communications Specialist from the Finance/ Administration division back into the HECP division . Minor decreases to part-time staff in Communities that Care and FDA Retail Tobacco Inspections programs account for a slight decline to adjust for the increases . 334 HEALTH COMMUNICATION SECTION (CONTINUED) 2520-41210 Operating expenses show the cost of Supplies has decreased due to a drop in grant revenue and the corresponding reduction in these expenditures . Expenditures under Purchased Services have also decreased significantly due to the completion of the Community Health Survey in 2022 , the withdrawal from a state grant and the associated costs of subcontracting with the United Way of Weld County. There are also decreased expenditures in the Supplies and Purchased Services categories to offset the increases in Personnel additional funding from county or grant funding . Fixed Charges , which is largely attributable to overhead allocations , has slightly increased due to increased FTE in the division and department-wide shifts in FTE distributions within the Health Department.

Revenue is expected to increase in 2024 by $271 , 867 , or 19 . 3% , due to increased grant funding in the Nurse Family Partnership program . Personnel expenditures are projected to increase by $202 , 634 , or 14 . 5% , due to annual cost-of- living adjustments , increased health insurance costs , and increased PERA retirement costs for the division . These cost increases , as well as a $ 12 , 091 increase in Fixed Charges , are offset by cuts to Supplies and Purchased Services of $48 , 518 based on historical spending , and by additional grant revenue . FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: During the budget process , the Health Department submitted a request for reclassifying 5 . 0 FTE ( 3 . 0 from Org 41300 and 2 . 0 from Org 41600) as Public Health Nurses for the ability to promote from PHN I at Grade 35 to PHN II at Grade 37 , for an approximate total cost of $21 , 820 . This request is supported by Human Resources due to the hiring and retention difficulty of qualified nurses . Finance agrees with the recommendation if the cost can be absorbed in the existing submitted budget , and is a policy issue for the board .

A portion of the personnel increases are offset with reductions in expenditures for supplies and purchased services , based on historical spending . The division saw a significant increase in personnel services costs from the previous year of $308 , 725 (8 . 5% ) . These increases were due to wage increases (cost of living adjustments & scheduled step increases) , insurance increases , and PERA retirement increases in 2023 and 2024 . Supplies decreased by $ 104 , 750 (28% ) from the previous year. Purchased services also decreased by $ 162 , 526 (23% ) . Fixed charges had a 6 . 7 % increase , or $37 , 274 , primarily due to the increase of overhead allocations . The decreases in supplies and purchased services were due to implementing cost saving measures along with a decrease in supplies and equipment needed for remodeling the lab and a decrease in consumable lab supplies following the cessation of medical lab activities in mid-2022 . 338 ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SERVICES (CONTINUED) 2560-41400 SUMMARY OF CHANGES (Continued) : A decrease in revenue is projected in 2024 due to a reduction in overall FTE in the Waste and Household Hazardous Waste programs , which reduced the corresponding transfer- in of funds from the solid waste fund . The remaining reduction in revenue is related to projected decreases in septic permit applications and decreases in land application permits ( biosolids) . FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: During the budget process , the Health Department submitted 2 . 0 FTE for reclassification . This includes 1 . 0 FTE from EH Specialist I ( Grade 33) to Air Quality Policy Analyst (Grade 42) at a cost of $20 , 355 , and 1 . 0 FTE from Lab Field Tech I to II ( Grade 20 to 22) at a cost of $3 , 133 .

In July 2023 , ELC funding related to the COVID- 19 response ended which resulted in the termination of all positions and expenditures related to the pandemic response . There will still be very limited activity for COVID immunizations in 2024 , but all expenditures are projected to be offset by our remaining COVID immunization funding that is expected to end in June of 2024 . Personnel will decrease by $ 1 , 147 , 126 and 16 . 725 FTE . This decrease is due to the elimination of the ELC grant ( COVID- 19 response) in 2023 . The remaining 2 . 0 FTE are funded through a grant with CDPHE that provides for an Emergency Response Coordinator and an Emergency Response Epidemiologist. Supplies decrease by $ 12 , 156 , purchased services decrease by $ 115 , 181 and fixed charges decrease by $259 , 129 . As with personnel , these decreases are also due to the elimination of the ELC grant . Expenditures related to the emergency preparedness grant are projected to remain level with 2023 budgeted expenditures . A decrease in projected revenue of $ 1 , 467 , 936 is due to the elimination of the ELC grant . The projected program revenue for the Emergency Preparedness and Response grant is up slightly over 2023 . 340 PUBLIC HEALTH PREPAREDNESS (CONTINUED) 2500-41500 FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval .

Personnel expenditures are projected to increase by $260 , 368 , or 13 . 42% , due to increases in regular wages , COLA , PERA, and employer health insurance contributions . These cost increases are offset by reductions in other operating expenses , based on historical spending . Projected expenditures related to Supplies , Purchased Services and Fixed Charges will decrease by $484 , 295 , or 31 . 1 % , due to reductions in expenditures for supplies and purchased services . This is primarily due to adjustments made to align more closely with actual expenditures in 2022 and cost savings due to implementation of increased efficiency and effectiveness measures . Overall revenue is expected to decrease in 2024 by $ 148 , 898 , or 9 .2 % . This is largely attributable to projections of decreased Medicaid ( Health First Colorado ) and private pay revenue in 2024 . Also , grant funding is down slightly following the end of one small grant with Denver Health in July of 2023 . These decreases are minimally offset by increased grant revenue in a few of our long-term grants including family planning , immunizations , and a new grant that funds testing and treatment of sexually transmitted infections . FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: During the budget process , the Health Department submitted requests for reclassifying 4 . 0 FTE , including 3 . 0 Medical Assistants I/ II/ III from Grade 17 to Grades 19 , 22 and 25 at an approximate cost of $22 , 144 . 342 PUBLIC HEALTH CLINIC SERVICES (CONTINUED) 2590-41600 FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION (continued) : The other reclassification is for an Office Tech III at Grade 17 to move to an Office Tech IV at Grade 22 .

Program funding is up for 2024 due to program revenues returning to more normal levels post COVID in 2023 . Other program funding came through CARES Act and the American Rescue Act in 2021 -2022 , which distorts the funding changes from 2021 -2023 . The Community Services Block Grant is up $ 107 , 500 at $405 , 500 and Senior Nutrition programs are up $430 , 000 . Department of Labor programs are up $301 , 400 . Area Agency on Aging is down $20 , 300 . Being totally reliant upon State and Federal funding sources, Human Services continues to operate in an uncertain environment. 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 2024 budget. As fiscal pressures are dealt with at the Federal and State levels , changes could be forthcoming that will affect this funding . The primary programs of Human Services are associated with the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) , formerly the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) , funded under the Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration . This program is anticipating $2 , 488 , 900 for 2024 . In addition , the Job Service contract will be $ 1 , 470 , 000 , up $584 , 800 .

The amendment requires that an emergency reserve be created to be used for declared emergencies only. With the adoption of the new accounting rules under GASB 54 the three percent (3 %) TABOR emergency reserve required by Article X, Section 20( 5) of the Colorado Constitution shall be a restricted fund balance in the General Fund in an amount equal to eight-million dollars or three percent of the TABOR revenue limit, whichever is greater.

For the Communications Capital Development Fund , a Capital Improvements Plan for 2024-2028 has been prepared to fund the county's communications infrastructure in partnership with the E-911 Authority board . CAPITAL EXPENDITURE FUND: The Capital Expenditures Fund accounts for various capital improvement projects for county buildings .

Details of all expenditures in the Facilities Capital Improvement Plan are listed in the following pages , and are reviewed by Facilities , Finance , Administration and the Board of County Commissioners for need and justification . The anticipated property tax revenue for 2024 is $80 , 535 , 309 and is necessary for obtaining the resource capacity needed for the long-term plan . Knowing that revenues will decrease for 2025 , resources won 't be available to put as many future dollars toward capital investment , and funding now allows for flexibility to pivot if future county service needs change based on new economic situations , program shifts , or other priorities , as the recent pandemic made clear. The Facilities Master Space Plan may cause some significant changes in the future of the Capital Fund ; however, all projects listed are believed to be imperative and the most cost-effective way of continuing to provide services to Weld County residents in the most efficient way possible . For 2024 , the classification of expenditures is changing slightly to allow for adequately purchasing small items of equipment such as bottle filling water fountains and AV equipment that is not considered "capital " according to the Purchasing Plan . Purchased Services reflects projects that may be contracted out and designed by other vendors . The remaining funds remain in " Capital " as improvements to land and buildings or having a purchase price of over $ 10 , 000 and a useful life of more than one year. Facilities is working to move more on -going maintenance related projects to the operating budget in the General Fund , which will occur in the coming years . FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval . BOARD ACTION: The final budget removed the contingency dollars for a lower expenditure total .

Weld is in the process of creating a Master Space Plan to further meet Strategic Priority #3 : Plan for Resilient Infrastructure , Facilities and Resources , with the plan anticipated to be completed in the latter half of 2024 . Utilizing the historic principles of preparation and forward thinking , the leadership of Weld County is preparing for significant growth in needed space , staffing , technology , and increasing maintenance needs on existing and aging facilities . Another issue that has recently impacted this fund greatly is the fluctuation of inflation on product and supply pricing . Prior to 2020 , projects could be budgeted within a 10% margin . Currently , a minimum of 30% contingency is included for every project to meet the ever-changing pricing of contracted services and supplies . Proposed Solution: Using the one-time significant increase in property tax expected in 2024 , the capital fund can be front loaded to meet almost 2 years of anticipated projects , with the understanding that the Master Space Plan may end up changing future years significantly . Each of the projects listed has been determined to be justified and will only change if the Master Space Plan can utilize the funds and existing resources in a more efficient way . Financing: It is recommended that the capital fund resources remain to carry over within the capital fund each year. Using this method , the resources can be maximized to allow for flexibility and creativity in utilizing the funds available to meet all the identified capital needs . Impact on Operational Costs: As buildings are added to the Weld County inventory , the appropriate ongoing maintenance and operations are included as an increase to Facilities budget in the General Fund . For projects that require additional staffing , the individual departments that are affected will request those increases separately . As of the preparation of the 2024 budget , none of the projects identified for 2024 require additional staffing that has not already been identified . 415 Facilities 2024 Capital Improvement Plan The 2024 Department Requests , Facilities Capital Projects and Infrastructure Improvements were allocated as follows . Fund : 4000-17500 Capital Projects 9 $ 26, 537, 566 Infrastructure & 54 9, 564, 419 q p E ui ment $ Department Requests 23 $ 2, 035, 287 Total 86 $ 38, 137, 272 Facilities and Finance and Administration utilized the following matrix to prioritize the list of projects for 2024 and ongoing needs . With this method , all requests were determined to be included in the 2024 Capital Plan except for one , being removed as it is already in the maintenance plan for future years . The preliminary Master Space Plan and changes to Facilities' ability to budget for ongoing maintenance in the General Fund are being reviewed to improve in future years for the highest effectiveness . The goal of the Facilities Master Plan and any future changes are to meet Strategic Priority #3 : Plan for Resilient Infrastructure , Facilities and Resources . Priorities Description Most " Urgent" tasks that are obvious in nature which could result in loss of 1 Outstanding equipment, functionality, or mission accomplishment . Safety/Security Degradation . Policy direction . " Severe " degradation of mission/equipment . Continuation of existing 2 Hi h project. This level of priority translates into projects that need to be g completed in a timely manner or they will become larger and more unruly as time passes . " Minor" degradation in mission/equipment. Minor improvement to existing processes . Medium priority tasks may not seem a medium level to 3 Medium users/tenants as they may not see the larger picture of tasks on the "To Do" list . However, these tasks are important, but not as important as an Outstanding or High priority. " Nominal " improvement or preventative in nature . Lower priority tasks 4 Low often fall into this category where projects can wait until the proper time of year. Already in maintenance plan . No long-term value or extended ROI .

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 and financing . Second , pay as you go protects borrowing capacity for unforeseen major outlays that are beyond any current year's capacity . Third , when coupled with regular , steady completion of capital improvements and good documentation and publicity , pay as you go fosters favorable bond ratings when long-term financing is undertaken . Finally , the technique avoids the inconvenience and considerable cost associated with marketing of bond issues , advisors , counsel , printing , etc. However, there are practical and theoretical disadvantages to a pay as you go policy. First , pay as you go puts a heavy burden on the project year. Second , it creates awkward fluctuating expenditure cycles which do not occur with extended financing . Third , a long- life asset should be paid for by its users throughout its normal life , rather than all at once by those who may not have the use of it for the full term . Finally , when inflation is driving up construction costs , it may be cheaper to borrow and pay today's prices , rather than wait and pay tomorrow's . 2 . All borrowing policy: An all borrowing policy or a substantial reliance on debt financing is another approach . The annual available resources could be used entirely for debt service with the size of the annual resources setting the limit on the amount that could be borrowed . 3 . Capital reserve: A capital reserve plan is an approach where the annual resources available could be accumulated in one or more capital reserve funds , the amounts invested , and when any funds become adequate to pay for a proposed project, the fund could be expended . This is a good approach when a county has a capital requirement which can wait . Accumulation of the necessary capital funds over a period of time is a feasible approach , assuming a relatively stable construction dollar. HB 82- 1111 , passed in 1982 , specifically provides for a capital improvements trust fund for capital reserves . 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 the burden will not be postponed . 424 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 few 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 and financing 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 consider 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 . 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 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 . 425 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 nearly $350 million dollars in Weld County . Section 4 of Article X , Section 20 (TABOR Amendment) , requires voter approval for any form of multi-year debt . It states that an election is required : " Except for the refinancing of district bonded debt at a lower interest rate or adding new employees to existing district pension plans , creation of any multiple-fiscal year direct or indirect district debt or other financial obligation whatsoever without adequate present cash reserves pledged irrevocable and held for payments in all future fiscal years . " In addition to the state statute , Section 14-6 of the Weld County Home Rule Charter specifies : "The incurring of indebtedness by the county and the issuance of evidences of such indebtedness shall be authorized , made and executed in accordance with the laws of the state , including the borrowing of money to fund county projects , the pledging of project revenues and repayment thereof, and the issuance of revenue warrants , or revenue bonds , or other forms of evidence of such obligations . " Before discussing specific types of bonds , it is appropriate to review some of the general characteristics of bonds . Bonds mature serially , that is , a portion of the principal is retired over the entire term of the bond issue . Interest on municipal bonds is free from Federal Income Tax which is an important feature to prospective purchasers . The term or the length of time to maturity of municipal bonds can vary considerably. Generally , the last maturing bond comes due ten to thirty years from the date of issue . Normally , the longer the maturity of the bonds , the higher the yields or return on investment is demanded by the market price . Thus , a bond issue that runs thirty years will pay a higher net effective interest rate than a bond issue that runs twenty years . 426 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 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 . 427 In analyzing a revenue bond issue for underwriting , an investment banker will look not only at operating statistics and coverage , but also at more basic elements , such as the necessity of the service , control over competition , and delinquency procedures . Revenue bonds are becoming more popular because they do not require voter approval and do not apply in statutory debt limits . Leases: A less traditional method of financing county facilities is a lease arrangement . A lease is executed with the county , which gives the county the option to purchase the equipment or facility during the term of the lease . All or part of the lease payments may be applied to the purchase prices . A bona fide lease option agreement is not a debt ; however, an installment purchase program is a debt . A bona fide lease/option agreement is characterized by two factors : 1 . Annual rental payments with automatic renewal of the lease unless terminated by either party , and 2 . No obligation on the part of the local government to purchase the property if the lease is terminated . Also , some court cases indicate the annual rental must be paid from non -property tax revenues to avoid the lease being considered a general obligation . Upon exercise of the option , the local government obtains full legal title to the property. Leases of this nature are distinctively different from more conventional means of financing . Of primary importance is the security which underlies the lease period . It is not a promise to levy taxes or a pledge of revenues from the system . Rather, it is usually a promise to pay only one year at a time , with an implied intention to continue payment until ownership is transferred . As ultimate security , the holder of the lease may look to the asset which is being leased in the event of a default . There is little statutory or judicial guidance in the area of leases of this type , and the obligation to continue lease payments until title transfers is a moral , rather than a legal obligation . As a consequence , the underwriting or placement of a lease is more difficult than the underwriting of conventional bonds . The term of the leases generally is 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. 428 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 , County Attorney , and Director of Facilities , 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 like municipal leases in the way they are viewed by investors . As with a simple municipal lease , building authority bonds are less secure than general obligation or revenue bonds . As a result , bonds issued through a building authority bear higher interest than more secure issues . Certificates of Participation ( COP ) may be issued in the same manner as bonds . As a practical matter the COP is the same as a bond , except from a legal point of view, the COP is evidencing assignment of proportionate undivided interests in rights to receive certain revenues in the form of a lease or rental amount for the purpose of providing funding for capital improvements . The lease and COP do not constitute a general obligation or other indebtedness of the county within the meaning of any constitutional , statutory or home rule charter debt limitation . The lease is a year-to-year obligation . The use of Certificates of Participation ( COP ) has been the only debt vehicle Weld County has ever used in the implementation of its debt policy options . The only COP issued by Weld County was done in 1997 and was paid off August 1 , 2007 . No outstanding debt exists for Weld County . 429 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 , County Attorney , and Director of Facilities 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 . 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 . 430 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 . 431 I 1861 ,1 ' 4e ;rossaw,milloo„,anw-e X Trc. IsT4 2 ?

In 2019 , the county solicited bids from all the large insurers operating in Colorado . As a result, the successful bidder was Aetna . In 2024 , the program will have a premium increase of 5% for employees and 15 % for the employer. This is the second large increase in a row, as the fund has had some large claims over the past few years . 2024 will be the first year that employees are allowed to " unbundle" health insurance related to dental and vision premiums . FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval . Weld County will continue to utilize Aetna , with a hybrid universal health PPO/HMO plan as the health insurance provider in 2024 , plus offer a high deductible health plan with a health reimbursement account option through Aetna . Rates for 2024 are recommended to increase 5% for employees and 15 % for the employer. In 2024 , it is recommended to continue the base health plan offered along with the standard PPO being a high deductible health plan with a health reimbursement account ( HRA) option through Aetna . The County will contribute $ 1 , 000 to the HRA for those employees taking the high deductible health/HRA plan . The standard PPO option offered will have higher deductibles , co- pays , and out-of- pocket expenses . The health plan options are consistent with the changes being made by the health insurance industry and by major employers offering employee and dependent healthcare benefits . Total budget is up due to premiums from higher enrollment of employees and dependents . 447 IGS - HEALTH INSURANCE (CONTINUED) 6200- 93100/93400 FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION (CONTINUED) : The 2024 program is calculated with current participation as follows : Single Coverage : 618 Dependent Coverage : 842 FIXED COSTS: Health Insurance $ 3 , 124 , 000 On-site Clinic 850 , 000 Administration/EAP Costs 129 , 000 Fixed Costs : $ 4 , 103 , 000 LOSS FUND: Medical $29 , 056 , 000 Dental 450 , 000 Loss Fund Costs $29 , 506 , 000 GRAND TOTAL - COSTS $33 , 609 , 000 REVENUE: Health Premiums $33 , 644 , 112 Dental 150 , 000 TOTAL REVENUE $ 33 , 794 , 112 ADD TO RESERVE $ 182 , 612 BOARD ACTION: Final budget adjustments required a 26% increase in employer insurance and a 5 % increase in employee insurance to not require reserves.

Workers' Compensation includes excess insurance and bonds costing $ 1 , 076 , 000 based on actual expenses in 2022 , claims administration costs of $23 , 000 , and a loss fund of $ 1 , 461 , 500 . 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 $4 , 300 , 000 . Cost for excess insurance through CAPP has increased substantially due to the tight insurance market, added property risks , and liability for law enforcement . This increase is being experienced by all entities , and even more so for public entities such as local governments . A loss fund for all other insurance coverage is budgeted at $ 1 , 100 , 000 , increasing over the past couple years due to numerous high value claims . Unemployment insurance is being charged directly to departments . The program is supported by property tax ($6 , 500 , 000) , charges for service ($ 160 , 000) , interest ( 110 , 000) , and compensation for losses ($ 100 , 000) . No fund balance reserves are anticipated to be needed to support the loss fund in 2024 . Property tax has been increased by $ 1 , 500 , 000 to $6 , 500 , 000 . Claim costs for all insurance types have increased , and premiums have continued to rise to meet inflation costs as well . 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 . 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 . 451 INSURANCE FUND (CONTINUED) 6300-93200/93300 BOARD ACTION: Approved as recommended .

With the payoff of the correctional facilities' Certificates of Participation (COP) as of August 1 , 2007 , Weld County has no long-term debt or long-term lease obligations . FINANCE/ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval . BOARD ACTION: Approved as recommended . 457 i 458 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 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 . 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. 459 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 . BOND An interest bearing promise to pay with a specific maturity . BALANCED BUDGET A balanced budget occurs when the total sum of money a government collects in a year is equal to the amount it spends on goods , services , and debt interest. 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 . 460 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 .

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 . 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. 461 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) .

(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 . 462 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 . ENCUMBRANCES Obligations in the form of purchase orders , contracts , or salary commitments which are chargeable to an appropriation and for which a part of the appropriation is reserved . They cease to be encumbrances when paid or when an actual liability is set up .

HIGHWAY USER TAX (HUTF) Revenue that is derived from the state gasoline tax and restricted for Road and Bridge activities . 464 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 . 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.

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

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 reimbursed . RESERVE ( 1 ) An account used to earmark a portion of fund balance to indicate that it is not appropriate for expenditure . (2 ) An account used to earmark a portion of fund equity as legally segregated for a specific future use . RESIDUAL EQUITY TRANSFER Non -recurring or non-routine transfers of assets between funds . REVENUE ( 1 ) Increases in governmental fund type net current assets from other than expenditure refunds and residual equity transfers . Under NCGA Statement 1 , general long-term debt proceeds and operating transfers-in are classified as "other financing sources" rather than revenues . (2 ) Increases in proprietary fund type net total assets from other than expense refunds , capital contributions , and residual equity transfers . Under NCGA Statement 1 , operating transfers- in are classified separately from revenues . REVENUE BOND A municipal bond payable from revenues derived from tolls , charges or rents paid by users of the facility constructed with the proceeds of the bond issue . SOURCE OF REVENUE Revenues are classified according to their source or point of origin . SPECIAL REVENUE FUND A fund used to account for revenues legally earmarked for a particular purpose . SUBACTIVITY A specific line of work performed in carrying out a governmental activity .

SUBFUNCTION A grouping of related activities within a particular governmental function . For example , " police" is a subfunction of the function " public safety" . SURPLUS The use of the term "surplus" in governmental accounting is generally discouraged because it creates a potential for misleading inference . 468 TABOR (TAXPAYERS BILL OF RIGHTS) An amendment to the Colorado Constitution approved by the voters in November 1992 .

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 taxable property . TAX RATE LIMIT The maximum rate at which a government may levy a tax . 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 .
