FY 25 Harford County Approved Operating Budget
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GRANT FUND
The Grants Fund was established to account for the receipt, appropriation, and expenditure of certain Federal, State, and private monies received in grant form in accordance with Harford County Charter Article V, Section 518(b), and appropriately executed agreements. Harford County actively pursues available intergovernmental financing to initiate or supplement funding of some of its programs, but it is County policy to review the long-term fiscal impact of all proposed grant programs to avoid dependence on outside funding source which could negatively influence the welfare and safety of the community. Article V, Section 518(b) of the Harford County Charter states, in part, "Revenues from grant allocations which were unanticipated in any current fiscal year may be appropriated by legislative act of the Council upon request of the County Executive. The appropriation shall be made to the proper grant account established by revenues. For this fiscal year, the Annual Budget Ordinance includes a budget item referred to as "Anticipated and Unanticipated Federal, State and Private Grant Funds" which will provide a block of money to be drawn upon during Fiscal Year 2024-2025 to avoid the cost and time of special legislation on each occasion grant funds are received. The Council will be notified by memorandum that a certain grant has been received and the amount of money drawn from this budgeted account. During Fiscal Year 2024-2025, Harford County plans to participate in over 60 individual grant programs as a direct recipient offered through either the Federal or State governments. Through these grant programs, financial and programmatic development assistance and support can be provided to designated private, nonprofit human services in Harford County. Staffing to implement these programs in provided for the duration of a particular grant, when appropriate.
