Title
From the Department of Administrative Services - Controller's Office, an informational report on the 2011 fiscal status through the second quarter. (INFORMATIONAL UNLESS OTHERWISE DIRECTED BY THE COMMITTEE)
Body
County Ordinance 56.02(2) requires the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) to "report, on a quarterly basis or in a manner determined to be most useful and effective, on the financial condition of the county, which report shall identify all major variances from the adopted budget on a department-by-department basis." To comply with this ordinance, DAS provides a projection of year-end financial results on a quarterly basis to the County Board and County Executive. This fiscal report is a projection of 2011 financial results based on second quarter financial data. The County's 2011 fiscal year ends on December 31, 2011. For each fiscal year, the County prepares a balanced budget in which revenues equal expenditures. Therefore, a report of surplus or deficit for the County represents actual results that are in total above (surplus) or below (deficit) net budgeted funds.
