Budget Guidelines and Priorities
Adopted by the Board of Supervisors on January 12, 2022
• Develop a sustainable budget that advances the County’s mission and strategic goals
• Direct Human Resources to develop a targeted employee compensation strategy
• Require all departments to allocate resources to fulfill their mandates and submit budgets within 
their baseline with no requests for new or expanded programs in the General and Detention funds 
unless presented publicly to the Board
• Review new capital or technology requests after reserve decisions are made
• Adjust existing capital projects for cost escalation prior to utilization of one-time funding
• Fund the direction to manage the unfunded pension liability prior to approving any other one-
time requests
• Evaluate all increases for their impact on the County’s Expenditure Limitation

FY 2023 Recommended 
Budget

Assumptions
• Structural balance in operating funds
- Recurring revenues meet or exceed recurring expenditures
• Most Likely scenario for Sales and Jail Excise revenue; pessimistic for VLT 
• Contingency based on historical utilization, revenue risks and unanticipated 
economic shocks
• General and Detention Fund reserve levels based on two-months of prior year 
operating budget
