bii'al jiiuernments will be
required id sulimi! budgets
More appniprintitij; and spend
ing any fuiuis received from
federal revenue sharing
In a letter mailed to all
Oregon cities and counties.
IVcemlver a. 19?::. Department
of Revenue Director Charles H
Mack said that these local
yowrnments must suhiuit
supplemental budgets if any of
the revenue sharing money is to
Ih- spent prior to preparation of
their next budgets
"l! the local governmental
unit decides not to spend the
funds immediately," Mack
said, "its governing body should
create a special fund into wnich
revenue sharing money is
placed until such time as the
revenue sharing is budgeted,
appropriated, and eventually
spent
Local governments have two
years from receipt of the money
in which to obligate and spend
it
The Oregon law also requires
public hearings on the supple
mental budgets as well as
publication of the budgets.
Oregon's Local Rudget Law
iOKS SUSJiW considers us
exceptions to the prespendmg
budget requirement any funds
received as grunts, gifts, be
quests, or trusts for specific or
special purposes.
However. "The receipt of
revenue sharing money by a
local governing unit is not an
exception," Mack said.
Revenue sharing money and
interest earned from its invest
ment must Ih- budgeted before it
can be spent."
The federal government has
laid down two principal re
quirements in reH)rting use of
these funds. State and local
governments must provide -an
accounting of the end use of the
revenue sharing money and any
interest received, and they
must provide a record showing
that the money was used for one
or more of the required ex
penditures in Section 103 a of
the Revenue Sharing Act.
