The County has multiple Non-Major Funds, many of which have had minimal activity during any given fiscal year. These Non-Major Funds include: Parks Capital Reserve Fund, Orange-Person-Chatham (OPC) Retiree Health Fund, DSS Trust Fund, Communication Towers Trust Fund, Jail Inmate Trust Fund, Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools (CHCCS) District Tax Fund, Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Trust Fund, and the Community Giving Fund. The County's external auditors recommend that these Non-Major Funds have Board of Commissioners approved budget authorization for each respective fund. These Non-Major funds are used to account for assets the County holds in a trust capacity on behalf of others. Additional descriptions for some of these funds are as follows: • Parks Capital Reserve Fund accounts for payments received from local developers to assist in construction of recreation projects in and around County subdivisions; • Orange-Person-Chatham (OPC) Retiree Health Fund accounts for health insurance contributions and premiums of the OPC employees that have joined the County's health insurance plan; • DSS Trust Fund (Representative Payee Fund) accounts for funds held by the County for the subsistence needs of specific Social Services clients; • Communication Towers Trust Fund accounts for application fees paid to the County by telecommunication companies, with these fees being used to pay costs associated with determining tower location and construction;
