Capital Planning and Associated Forms

As noted in the all boards meeting on 9/25/25, we have requested all departments, boards, committees, commissions, etc. to complete an inventory of assets and facilities. What to inventory? If your board had to repair/replace the asset and it is not part of your annual operating budget - put it in the inventory list.
This inventory is due by January 15, 2027. The sample forms are available below.
 

Compensation Request Form

COLA rate for FY27 has been set at 3%. For any salary requests for more than 3%, supervisors must file this form.
