8. BUDGET MANAGEMENT CHANGE FOR THE TREASURER’S OFFICE TO “LINE ITEM BUDGET CONTROL” Pursuant to the County Manager 's request, approve a budget management change for the Treasurer’s Office from “lump sum budgeting” to “line item budget control” beginning immediately. This action is necessary due to the fact that the Treasurer’s Office has forecasted to be over budget for FY 2008-09 and has made a request for Contingency Funds. Board approved Budgeting for Results Accountability Policy section D.12 states the following: “if there is a significant risk that a department will exceed its appropriated budget, the Board of Supervisors/Board of Directors may adopt appropriated budgets for that department at the level of program/activity and/or object of expenditure." Since the Treasurer has already communicated that they are forecasted to be over budget for FY 2008-09 and has made a request for Contingency Funds, OMB’s recommended corrective action plan is to place the Treasurer’s Office on a line item budget control plan at both the program/activity and at the object code level. OMB will meet with the Treasurer’s staff to develop an action plan to carry out this recommendation. (C-20-09-017-2-00)

29. CONTINUE “LINE ITEM BUDGET CONTROL” FOR THE TREASURER’S OFFICE Approve the continuation of “line item budget control” for the Treasurer’s Office for FY 2009-10. Board approved Budgeting for Results Accountability Policy section D.12 states the following: “if there is a significant risk that a department will exceed its appropriated budget, the Board of Supervisors/Board of Directors may adopt appropriated budgets for that department at the level of program/activity and/or object of expenditure.” The Treasurer’s Office has provided no significant signs that without OMB oversight of the Treasurer’s Office budget, they would be able to meet their budget commitments. OMB’s recommended action plan is to continue the Treasurer’s Office on a line item budget control plan at both the program/activity and at the object code level. (C-20-09-017-2-01)
