October 3, 2024 
 
To BOF Members: 
 
Some notes after reviewing several other Municipality’s Appropriation Transfer Policies for 
discussion purposes at the October 9th meeting.  
 
Copies of the policies are attached. Thanks to Josh Kelley who queried CCM on the Board’s 
behalf for the info. 
 
The first common thread in the examples is that the transfer rules are codified as 
ORDINANCES and that certain transfers required approval from the legislative body in 
Town, unlike here in Waterford. 
 
The second common thread is the diUerentiation of inter-department transfers vs intra-
department transfers and how they are handled. 
 
• 
Inter-Department Transfers: 
o Berlin, Enfield, Norwich, Hartford  
§ 
transfers only in the last 3 months of the fiscal year as approved by 
Town Manager and Town Counci 
o Shelton 
§ 
transfers only in the last 30 days of the fiscal year as approved 
by Board of Apportionment and Taxation and the Board of Alderman 
o South Windsor 
§ 
transfer without any timing restriction during the fiscal year as 
approved by the City Council 
 
 
• 
Intra-Department transfers 
o Berlin  
§ 
transfers < $5000 submitted to the Town Manager. 
§ 
transfers >= $5000 submitted to theTown Manager, and if approved,  to 
the Town Council 
o Hartford, Norwich, South Windsor, City Manager  
§ 
all transfers submitted to City Manager 
o Enfield 
§ 
all transfers submitted to the Town Council  
o Shelton 
§ 
all transfers submitted to the Board of Apportionment and Taxation  
 
Thanks

  Code of Ordinances 
 
Section 7-10.  Non-Budgeted Appropriations and Transfers. 
Subject to the limits provided in this section, the Council may at any time appropriate 
unbudgeted, unencumbered and contingency funds in the town treasury. Approval of a Town 
Meeting is required before the Council may vote on any non-budgeted appropriation greater than 
twenty-five thousand ($25,000.00) dollars or any non-budgeted appropriation which would cause 
the total of such non-budgeted appropriation during a given fiscal year to exceed two hundred 
fifty thousand ($250,000.00) dollars. 
The Council may transfer the whole or any part of the unencumbered balance of any 
appropriation, except for the Department of Education appropriations, to any other department 
for which the Council may legally appropriate money. However, such a transfer may be made 
from budget appropriations only in the last three (3) months of the fiscal year, and there shall be 
attached to the ordinance making the transfer a certificate of the Manager that such transfer is 
necessary, with the reasons therefor. Transfer of unencumbered funds from one item of a 
department budget to another item of the same budget may be made by a department head with 
the approval of the Manager and the Council. 
The Manager is authorized to make transfers from one line item to another within any division of 
a department budget subject to the following guidelines: 
(1)   No transfers will be made to hire additional staffing that has not been properly authorized by 
the Council; 
(2)   Transfers will not be made to purchase major pieces of equipment such as vehicles and 
machinery, or items, specifically deleted by the Council; 
(3)   The Manager's authority to transfer shall be limited to the amount of five thousand 
($5,000.00) dollars for any single transfer

therefor, such department, commission, board or officer shall make application to the council whose 
duty it shall be to examine into the matter and upon approval of the council such transfer may be made 
but not otherwise. Upon the request of the manager, but only within the last three (3) months of the 
fiscal year, the council may by resolution transfer any unencumbered appropriation, balance or portion 
thereof from one department, commission, board or office to another. No transfer shall be made from 
any appropriation for debt service and other statutory charges.

the appropriation of the Board of Education.

Apportionment and Taxation and Director of Finance shall review such appropriation to verify 
its termination.

approval or disapproval, or if his/her approval is for a sum less than the amount requested, the 
amount which is in fact approved by him, and shall file the same with the Chairman of the Board 
of Finance. If the First Selectman shall fail to act as hereinbefore set forth, then the petition filed 
with him by the department head or by the Town Council shall be deemed approved. 
Within forty-five (45) days after the date on which the First Selectman shall be required to act, 
the Board of Finance shall consider and act upon the petition by denying the same, granting the 
same as petitioned or granting the same for a sum less than petitioned.

action thereon by the Board of Finance provided that its authority shall be limited to 
authorization of funds no greater than that requested by the First Selectman or considered by the 
Board of Finance, or as provided in subsection (d) above.

BOARD OF FINANCE 2025-2026 BUDGET REQUEST GUIDELINES  
 
 
DATE:  September, 2024 
 
BUDGET REQUESTS NOT ADEQUATELY PRESENTED OR JUSTIFIED MAY BE RETURNED, REDUCED, OR 
SIMPLY NOT APPROVED. 
 
SECTION A:  GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 
 
All Town departments, boards, commissions and agencies are directed to use the following 
guidelines, attachments, and forms in the preparation of your Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget.   
 
1. Every budget line item should be justified and explained to the maximum extent possible.  
The amount requested should not be a percentage increase from the previous year’s 
expenditure.  This includes detailed lists of all expenditures using, as a minimum, the previous 
24 months’ values.  For certain measurable items such as electricity, heat and gasoline, a 
minimum of 24 months of history should be disclosed to justify the volume of units used in 
calculating the need for FY2026. Please include the number of units being used to calculate 
your 2026 budget request.  If anomalies exist causing the 24-month historical use to be 
inaccurate, do not use it; however, please include an explanation on how the proposed 
budgeted amount was calculated.    
 
When applicable and measurable, please report metrics which reflect the level of service 
being provided annually by your department, examples as per below. 
 
• Number of Personal Contacts (Rec & Park, Youth & Family, Seniors, Library) 
• Number and Type of Responses (Fire and Police) 
• Measures of Foot Traffic (Town Hall Offices) 
 
These are types of indicators which will help justify requested budgets and changes from year-
to year.  
 
2. Comparisons to prior year budgets should be based on what was appropriated by the RTM, 
(i.e. do not include mid-year appropriations).  Be sure to identify any new cost items that have 
not appeared in earlier budgets. 
 
3. To ensure purchase quality, provide consistency and to determine appropriate costs for each 
item, all budget requests for the purchase of any equipment or supplies MUST be reviewed by 

2 | P a g e  
 
the Director of Finance or the Purchasing Agent in the Finance Director’s absence. When 
possible, similar equipment will be purchased for all departments to save costs for 
maintenance and supplies.  
 
All equipment must be budgeted under the equipment line and not under other lines (i.e. 
other supplies or maintenance of vehicles, etc.). 
 
4. Provide a detailed breakdown of all service contracts and maintenance & repair costs. These 
shall be reviewed with the Director of Finance or Purchasing Agent to ascertain if cost savings 
can be achieved by servicing similar equipment from many departments under one bill with 
prorated costs.  In addition, all such budget requests MUST be reviewed by either of these 
individuals to ensure all costs are consistent and appropriate.  Maintenance and Service 
contracts related to IT and Software & Hardware will be budgeted within the Information 
Technology Budget.  Please ensure your requests are forwarded the IT Manager to ensure 
they are included in the IT Budget Proposal. 
 
5. Personnel budgets for each department are established based on the number and 
classification of employees disclosed at the budget hearings.  Department heads must provide 
explanation for variance(s) between the annual personnel survey report provided by the 
Human Resources Director and the budgeted personnel count.  Transfer of funds from one 
51000 series line item to another for the purpose of creating additional positions or change of 
classification requires prior approval by the Personnel Review Board.  Departments Heads 
must disclose the assignment of any costs associated with re-assignment of personnel outside 
of their normal work function.  Please attach a detailed listing of positions under each 
category (i.e. administration).  Finance will provide Department Heads with information for 
your personnel budgets (i.e. salary, fringe benefits, etc.); however, finance staff will work with 
Department Heads to calculate overtime and other hours for specific departments. 
 
As detailed in #9, if a position is to be funded through a grant, the budget request must 
include the name of the grant, amount of grant funds requested and the total cost of the 
position if the grant award is not received. 
 
6. Provide a detailed listing of specific dues, conferences and other educational expenses and a 
rationale for this need.  These costs must be disclosed within this classification and not 
included under Training.  The Training Line Item must be restricted to mandated or required 
training only. 
 
• Provide a five-year history of mandatory training 
• Describe the changes year-to-year as the schedule requires  
 
7. Accounts with a $1 budgeted will be zeroed out and removed.  If funds are needed in a 
zeroed out account, a transfer request can be submitted with justification. 
8. A certified audit report of all funds appropriated during the last completed fiscal year should 
be supplied by public health nurses, Ledge Light Health District, seCTer, library and social 
service agencies.  Requests should also include a reporting of total Waterford residents 
serviced.

9. Any organization that receives funds from source(s) other than the Town or anticipates 
receiving funds from source(s) other than the Town is requested to disclose the source(s), 
amount received/anticipated and how those funds are or will be used.  Any organization that 
receives funding from outside sources and does not disclose those sources is required to 
provide an explanation.  For each source of funding please provide the amount received in the 
previous fiscal year, the amount received or expected in the current fiscal year and any 
amount expected in the next fiscal year, including grants.  In addition, for grant funds, include 
the line item from which the funds were expended, as well as a projection of anticipated grant 
funds for the next fiscal year. 
 
• The Utility Commission must provide a copy of its Sewer Enterprise Fun’s current fiscal 
year operating budget and its projected operating budget for Fiscal Year 2025-2026. 
 
10. Director of Fire Services is requested to provide a summary by line item for each company.   
Individual fire company allocations should be detailed in each fire services account line.  A 
summary by account number for each fire company should be included at the end of the 
budget request. 
 
11. The Youth and Family S
