Phase 1 |
New fiscal year begins October 1st of each year. |

Phase 2 |
County staff begins forecasting revenue and expenditures by analyzing historical actual data and modifying the forecasts based on known trends and changes. Budget guidelines are developed based on known factors affecting the County such as staffing needs, capital improvements, and trend data, and then communicated to County departments, Constitutional Officers, and outside agencies supported by the Sumter County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC). |
|
Phase 3 |
County departments and agencies supported by the BOCC develop their budget requests. County departments work closely with the County Administrator to ensure that all facts regarding the upcoming budget year are addressed. Various budget workshops are held between the County Administrator and County staff to develop the tentative budget. |

Phase 4 |
The tentative budget is finalized based on direction and approval from the County Administrator. The tentative budget document presents a balanced budget for the coming year. |

Phase 5 |
The tentative budget is distributed to the BOCC and budget workshops are held with the County Administrator, Constitutional Officers, and County budget staff.
