provisions are an integral part of the official budget of Whatcom
County and shall be published therewith.
(A) None of the monies appropriated herein shall be used for
travel, lodging, or registration expenses for seminars, workshops,
conventions, association meetings, or out of County trips, except
as is required by law for mandated training or professional
accreditation, or as has been approved in advance by the County
Executive (for executive or administrative employees) or the
Chairperson of the County Council or the Finance Committee (for
legislative employees).
(B) This department /fund level appropriation is based upon the
backup detail budget as attached. Personnel positions included in
the backup detail can not be increased during the year except by
approval of the County Council. The monies allocated to Personal
Services within BARS object 10, Personnel Benefits within object
20 and Capital Outlay within object 60 can be transferred only
with the prior approval of the County Executive.
(C) To the extent they are available, motor pool cars shall be
utilized for County travel purposes by employees stationed in the
central County complex before privately -owned vehicles are used on
a reimbursement basis. The County Executive shall be authorized
to grant exemption from this provision when the cost of a motor
pool vehicle would exceed the cost of the use of a private
automobile.
(D) All construction work funded herein for which the estimated
cost is over $25,000 shall be bid out to private contractors,
pursuant to the bid procedures contained in Whatcom County Code
Chapter 3.08 and applicable state laws, except as the Council may
specifically authorize by exception.
(E) Appropriation authority for any budgeted personnel position
Which becomes vacant during 1987 shall continue unless
the Council by motion identifies the position as one in need of
review. The Executive shall report to the Council once each month
on those positions wherein an upcoming vacancy is anticipated or
has occurred.
(F) Expenditures from the Emergency Contingency Fund shall be
made only upon advance approval of the Council.
(G) The Purchasing Department shall be responsible for all office
equipment maintenance and repair contracts, and with the County
Executive's approval, is the sole department authorized to
negotiate and enter into such contracts on behalf of Whatcom
County. The Purchasing Department shall take advantage of contract
consolidation and competitive bidding to promote cost savings.
(H) Any monies appropriated for senior services programs within
the Parks and Recreation Fund budget may not be transferred to any
other activity or program.
(I) A list of all encumbrances outstanding at year -end shall be
presented to the County Executive. The Executive will determine
which of these encumbrances are ongoing contractual obligations of
the County and will submit this list to the County Auditor.
The appropriation authority for this list presented by the
Executive will be carried into the following fiscal year in
addition to that approved for that year.

(J) In light of the unacceptably low proposed estimated Current
Expense ending fund balance contained in this Budget and the
Council's desire to avoid a reduction in employee force, the
Current Expense Budget authority granted herein shall cease as of
February 28, 1987 unless the County Executive presents a revised
budget which reflects a reduction in labor costs of a minimum of
$120,000 in the Current Expense Budget with comparable savings
within other budgets.
In the event such a reduction cannot be realized, the Executive is
directed to propose staff and /or program cuts to meet the target,
said proposal to be made no later than 1/31/87.
(K) Monies accrued from the domestic violence deferred
prosecution assessment shall be maintained in a fund adminis-
tered by the Mental Health Board for use in a program to treat
victims of domestic violence.
(L) It shall be the policy of Whatcom County to levy the state
surcharge on all fines ( RCW 46.63.110.(3)) in addition to all
fines set by the District Court rather than deducting the
surcharge from the County's share of such fine.
(M) The Director of Public Works, in conjunction with the
Personnel Office is requested to immediately perform job
evaluations for employees of the Engineering Division and submit a
report to the Finance Committee prior to the first Council meeting
in January 1987, and to provide recommended amendments to the non -
represented employees salary schedule reflecting changes in job
responsibilities and salaries, if any.
APPROVED this 19th day of February , 1987.
