OUTSIDE AGENCY FUNDING POLICY approved during the current funding cycle. This application maybe considered for the next fiscal year if requested by the agency. If any agency requests funding during the middle of a fiscal year, this request may only be funded in the following year through the normal application process. 6. In September each year, the Board of County Commissioners holds a Preliminary Budget Hearing and a Final Budget Hearing in order to legally adopt the Operating Budget for the next fiscal year. Each of these is a public hearing, and is advertised to the public prior to the meeting. Once the budget is legally adopted, the Budget Office will notify each agency of its allocation. C. Reserved D. Nonprofit Agency Responsibilities After Award of Funding Indian River County provides funding to all nonprofit agencies on a reimbursement basis only. 2. All reimbursable expenses must be documented by an invoice and/or a copy of the canceled check. Any expense not documented properly to the satisfaction of the Office of Management & Budget and/or the County Administrator may not be reimbursed. If an agency repeatedly fails to provide adequate documentation, this may be reported to the Board of Commissioners. In the event an agency provides inadequate documentation on a consistent basis, funding may be discontinued immediately. Additionally, this may adversely affect future funding requests. 4. Expenditures may only be reimbursed from the fiscal year for which funding was awarded. For example, no expenditures prior to October 1 st may be reimbursed with funds from the following year. Additionally, if any funds are unexpended at the end of a fiscal year, these funds are not carried over to the next year unless expressly authorized by the Board of Commissioners. 5. All requests for reimbursement at fiscal year end (September 30th) must be submitted on a timely basis. Each year, the Office of Management & Budget will send a letter to all nonprofit agencies advising of the deadline for reimbursement requests for the fiscal year. This deadline is typically early to mid October, since the Finance Department does not process checks for the prior fiscal year beyond that point. 6. Each reimbursement request must include a summary of expenses by type. These summaries should be broken down into salaries, benefits, supplies, contractual services, etc. If Indian River County is reimbursing an agency for only a portion of an expense (e.g. salary of an employee), then the method for this portion should be disclosed on the summary. The Office of Management & Budget has summary forms available.
