Title 19. Counties and County Officers
§19-1411. Estimate of revenues and expenditures.

A. On or before a date set by the county budget board, the county excise board shall provide a tentative estimate of anticipated revenues from all sources, classified by funds, for the succeeding fiscal year.

B. On or before a date set by the county budget board, each officer, board or commission and all employees charged with the management or control of any department or office, as determined by the county budget board, shall prepare for the succeeding fiscal year, on forms provided by the budget board, estimated revenues and expenditures of the department or office. The county budget board may require such additional statistics or financial statements from county officers or others to enable it to ascertain fiscal conditions and needs. The information as to estimated revenues is supplementary and is not intended to equal estimated expenditures. The information required from each department, office, board or commission shall be set forth in tabular form, as follows:

1. Actual revenues and expenditures in the immediate prior fiscal year;

2. Budget estimates for the current fiscal year;

3. Actual revenues and expenditures for a period of six (6) to (9) nine months, as appropriate, of the current fiscal year;

4. Estimated actual revenues and expenditures for the current fiscal year; and

5. Estimated revenues and proposed expenditures for the budget year.

C. The budget board shall estimate, on the basis of demonstrated need, the expenditures for the budget year after a review of the budget requests and estimates of the department heads, officers, boards or commissions. Each such official shall be heard by the budget board prior to making of its final estimates, but thereafter it may revise any estimates as deemed advisable before finalizing the proposed budget for each fund.
