Per State regulations, no additional projects can be added to the ICIP after the deadline A project is supposed to be identified in an ICIP in order to be eligible for Capital Outlay funding

things to know and consider before you start The State “GRANTS” Capital Outlay funds to the County. The County is always the “GRANTEE”, NOT a “Fiscal Agent” to the State. Per the State, any purchase using Capital Outlay funds cannot be owned by the NPO; the capital improvement must be owned by the County.   Per the State, Capital Outlay funds cannot be “Passed Through” the County to a NPO. Narrative: The STATE uses a different funding source such as Severance Tax Bonds, General Obligation Bonds, etc. THE STATE “grants” capital outlay funds to the County. The County becomes the “Grantee” and not a “Fiscal Agent” to the State. The County is only the Fiscal Agent to the Non-Profit… PER THE STATE, any purchase using Capital Outlay dollars cannot be owned by the NPO; and must be owned by the County. Per the State, capital outlay funds cannot be “Passed Through” the County to a NPO.

things to know and consider before you start When the STATE “grants” to County, the County must: Follow all laws in the Expenditure of the grant funds Report monthly and at year-end on the grant activity Fund the Grant Amount from County Budget Request State to approve a notice of obligation Request Reimbursement for the Grant amount expended Purchase, own, lease, and dispose of the capital items following all applicable State and County laws Provide staff to manage Capital Outlay grant and project

Things to know and consider before you start State will not reimburse the expenditures, If: the County or NPO Expends dollars on the project before receiving State approval in the form of a notice of obligation; and County expenditures do not meet State financial regulations and/or appropriation language. NPOs identified as recipients of a legislative appropriation prompts review by State Attorney General’s Office and DFA Legal staff, To: Ensure Anti-Donation conditions set by the State are met by the County and NPO; and Ensure the Legislative Appropriation processes of Capital Outlay funds are being met.

PRE-LEGISLATIVE SESSION NPO contacts their County Commissioner, State Representative, and State Senator to gain interest and support to fund a specific Project well before the County passes its ICIP Administrative Resolution. TIMEFRAME: Summer 2017 in preparation for the 2018 winter Legislative Session. NPO completes the CAPITAL OUTLAY REQUEST APPLICATION to Bernalillo County and submits by the deadline. DEADLINE: July 5, 2017 by 5:00pm MST County Management reviews the Application to determine if a Strategic County Goal is met and examines the feasibility of the proposed Project.

LEGISLATIVE SESSION The State of New Mexico 54th Legislative Session will conduct its 30 day session. TIMEFRAME: January 2018– February 2018 NPO takes it from here! County does not Lobby on behalf of the NPO! Approach Legislative Representative(s) to Sponsor Capital Outlay Request Fate of Capital Outlay Request is determined by State Legislature. Does it move forward into the Capital Appropriation Bill and onto the Governor’s Desk for Signature? There is a Deadline for the Governor to sign Legislation including Line Item Vetoes! Capital Outlay Legislation is not FINAL until signed by the Governor. If Governor Signs Bill and Does Not Veto, You Just Got Capital Outlay!!!

POST-LEGISLATIVE SESSION State determines the timing of STB sale to generate proceeds for Capital Outlay appropriations. County completes required State Questionnaire, in conjunction with the NPO, to get STB sold. TIMEFRAME: April – Summer 2018 State sets the ‘conditions’ to be met by the County prior to receiving the formal Capital Outlay Appropriation. County and NPO Must Complete an Agreement to be approved by State identifying: HOW NPO will providing “Fair Market Value” for the use/lease of the Capital asset; HOW “Fair Market Value” was derived; and How NPO will report to County on consideration. Once conditions are met, a Grant Agreement between the County and State is approved. TIMEFRAME: Generally within eight (8) months after Capital Outlay Bill is signed by the Governor Bernalillo County will charge the nonprofit a 3% overhead/administrative fee that CANNOT be paid with the grant appropriation.

HOW IS THE PROJECT DELIVERED? State requires a new Third Party Agreement or an amendment to the existing Services Agreement between the County and the NPO County identifies how NPO meets or exceeds the value of the Capital Outlay amount NPO must provide services at a value which will meet both the Capital Outlay Grant requirements and the “Services in Lieu of Rent Agreement” Requirements. Meet with County Project Manager to identify project timeline and plan Capital Asset purchase in accordance with the language of the appropriation and approved by the State DFA/LGD. Once purchase is complete, asset(s) become part of County inventory. The NPO must have proper insurance to accept delivery of the Capital asset. County requests reimbursement from State and begins monitoring NPO. County reports project activity to DFA.
