<br />County Manager’s recommended funding levels are based on scoring completed by each <br />advisory board. Agencies scoring between 95% and 100% received 35% of their requested <br />increase. Agencies scoring between 90% and 94% received 15% of their requested increase, <br />and agencies scoring between 80% and 89% received 5% of their requested increase. <br />Agencies with scores of 79% and below are not recommended for an increase in funds.
