. , _~ <br />~~~ office to the next reviewer or to the <br />Manager's office. <br />Signature The reviewer signs off to signify that the <br />item has been reviewed. Note that the <br />signature does not imply approval or <br />disapproval. <br />Please note that you should attach one cover sheet to the original of <br />your abstract. This same original will be sent to all reviewing <br />parties with the exception of the County Attornev or other reviewers <br />outside County government. The County Attorney should be sent a copy <br />of your abstract and cover sheet. <br />ADDITION TO THE POLICY FOR ABSTRACT COVER SHEET FOR ITEMS WHICH ARE <br />PRESENTED TO THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS FOR CONSIDERATION OF APPROVAL <br />The following procedure is for items which require the signature of <br />the Chair of the County Commissioners. <br />1. When the abstract is submitted for the agenda, all originals <br />of the contract, agreement, etc., stays with the originator. <br />2. After it item has been considered by the BOCC, the Clerk to <br />the Board will call and leave a message on your voice mail <br />of the action taken - approval or denial or modified. <br />3. The originator will obtain all the necessary signatures. If <br />expenditure of county funds are required, the document must <br />be preaudited by the Finance Director. <br />• 4. Send the signed documents to the Clerk to the Board for the <br />Chair's signature. Send enough copies so that the Clerk and <br />the Purchasing Director will have originals for their files. <br />5. When you send the documents for signature by the Chair, <br />include instructions of the distribution, including <br />appropriate addresses. <br />The following change to the April 6, 1989 agenda abstract process <br />should also be observed. The abstract cover sheet has been revised <br />to reflect "Budget/Finance Review", since in many cases, abstracts <br />should be reviewed by the directors of both departments. Examples of <br />agenda items requiring Budget Office review include budget amendments <br />(increases or decreases), requests for positions, grant proposals or <br />awards, and operational or policy matters that have a potential <br />budgetary impact on the originating department, or some other <br />department(s). If in doubt about whether an item requires both <br />Budget and Finance review, route the document to both - the Budget <br />and Finance Directors will take responsibility for ensuring that the <br />other has the opportunity to review appropriate items, before passing <br />them along to the Manager or Assistant Manager. <br /> <br />
