1. Approval- Create a Special Revenue Fund and adopt a FY 20-21 budget for
certain Register of Deeds fees that are set by NC General Statutes (NCGS) and
are required by the same NCGS to be remitted to other State Agencies or Funds.
GASB Statement No. 84 and LGC guidance have clarified that this portion of the
fees should be accounted for in a Special Revenue Fund rather than General
Fund. Fees include Deeds of Trust ($6.20 per deed), Excise Tax (50% after
deducting administrative fees) and Marriage License fee ($5 per license to NC
Children's Fund and $30 per license to NC Domestic Violence Fund)

2. Approval- Create a Special Revenue Fund for DSS Representative Payee
Accounts and adopt a budget of $750,000 which is based on previous years
receipt of Federal and State funds for these individuals. GASB Statement No. 84
and LGC guidance has clarified that DSS Representative Payee Accounts should
be accounted for in a Special Revenue Fund rather than in a Fiduciary Fund as
historically reported. This change is required for FY 20-21.

3. Approval- Transfer the existing FY 20-21 Fines and Forfeiture budget of $600,000
from an Agency Fund to a new Special Revenue Fund. New GASB Statement
No. 84 and LGC guidance have clarified that Fine and Forfeiture revenue
collected that is required by NCGS to be remitted to the school system is to be
accounted for in a Special Revenue Fund.

4. Approval- Transfer the existing FY 20-21 budget of $14,000 for the Library Trust
Fund-Vera Holland Center from an Agency Fund to a new Special Revenue Fund.
New GASB Statement No. 84 and LGC guidance that are to be implemented in
FY 20-21 clarify that this activity does meet the criteria of a Fiduciary Fund and
should be accounted for in a Special Revenue Fund.

5. Approval- Transfer the existing Airport Capital Project Fund bUdget to a new
Special Revenue Fund. While analyzing County financial activity against new
GASB guidance on Fiduciary Funds, it was determined that the Airport Fund is

airport projects that are assets owned by the Airport Authority.
