Management & Budget

These documents are prepared and implemented in accordance with Board policy, Truth in Millage (TRIM) requirements, and the Florida Statutes.

This Department also provides financial and budgetary information and assistance to the Board of County Commissioners, Administration/Legal, Departments, Divisions, Offices and Constitutional Officers. Additionally, the Department has the responsibility for issuing County Bonds and Certificates of Obligation.

Other functions of the Department of Management and Budget include: preparation of resolutions amending the adopted budget for unanticipated funding sources; processing budget transfers for Board approval; reviewing Board agenda items for potential budget impact; and attending staff meetings when budget concerns are discussed.

The County received the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) award for Distinguished Budget Presentation for its annual appropriated budget dated October 1, 2020. This was the 16th year that Citrus County received this award.
