County Budget Preparation of a budget that will take care of the needs of, each county department and activity and stand public inspection in the courthouse and in the county newspaper is the present task of the county officials through out the state under the new County Fiscal Control Act. Preliminary budget estimates arc now being prepared on forms, already sent out from the office of the Coun ty Government Advisorv Commission j . by the department heads and officers in charge of 'functions m each county. These estimates must be completed and presented!, to each county ac countant by June A. , Thees preliminary budgets will show in detail what the department spent last year, an estimate of what it will spend this year, arid what it expects to spend during the year beginning July 1, : . . Based on the figures submitted to him by the department heads, the county accountant will prepare a budget estimate for the entire county and submit it to, the county com missioners not later than the first Monday in July, when the budgets will be finally fixed for the year on the basis of the county's income. Under the new law all counties will use the uniform budgeting system. After the budgets have been finally acted on, the departments will know exactly, what they may spend next year, Each line of activity will ope rate under its own apportionment, as the funds are not transferable from one department to another. Upon submission of the budget esti mate, and at least twenty days before the adoption ' of the appropriation rpcnlntinn the hudcret estimate shall be filed in the office of the clerk of the board, where it shall remain for public inspection. The law further requires that a copy of the budget estimate, be furnished to each news paper published in the county. The county officials must also cause to be published .in at least one news paper published in the county, a sum mary of the budget estimate, show ing at least the total appropriation recommended for each separate fund or function.
