(Chicago, Illinois) --Government Finance Officers Association is pleased to armounce that Weld
County, Colorado, has received GFOA's Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for its budget.
The award represents a significant achievement by the entity. It reflects the commitment of the
governing body and staff to meeting the highest principles of governmental budgeting. In order to
receive the budget award, the entity had to satisfy nationally recognized guidelines for effective
budget presentation. These guidelines are designed to assess how well an entity's budget serves as:

■ an operations guide
■ a communications device
Budget documents must be rated "proficient" in all four categories, and in the fourteen mandatory
criteria within those categories, to receive the award.
When a Distinguished Budget Presentation Award is granted to an entity, a Certificate of Recognition
for Budget Presentation is also presented to the individual(s) or department designated as being
primarily responsible for having achieved the award. This has been presented to Donald D.
Warden, Director of Finance and Administration.
There are over 1,600 participants in the Budget Awards Program. The most recent Budget Award
recipients, along with their corresponding budget documents, are posted quarterly on GFOA's
website. Award recipients have pioneered efforts to improve the quality of budgeting and provide an
excellent example for other governments throughout North America.
