§ 9430. Cost Guidelines.
Currentness
(a) The Department shall reimburse counties for actual program costs incurred during the fiscal year. The Department shall review projected program costs identified in the budget section of the plan against cost guidelines. Budgets shall not be approved until all items are established at or below cost guidelines or the Department grants an exception.
(b) The Department shall evaluate costs which exceed cost guidelines during and at the close of the fiscal year. The Department shall notify the administrator of any program that exceeds cost guidelines in writing. Reconciliation of disputed costs shall be subject to negotiation between the county and the Department. Resolution of such review may result in one of the following:
(1) The Department may allow a program to operate through the remainder of the current fiscal year with the understanding that the plan for the next fiscal year shall reflect substantial changes in program costs or it shall not be approved.
(2) The Department may withdraw current fiscal year budget approval of the program exceeding cost guidelines and reduce monthly advance payments according to the amount of overage.
(3) Where program costs exceed cost guidelines in one fiscal year and the overage is not reported until the following fiscal year, the Department may reduce the county allocation for the fiscal year following the report of overage.
(4) The Department may grant exceptions to a county exceeding cost guidelines when it is determined a program cannot or could not meet cost guidelines and no alternate program is or was available.
(c) Every effort shall be made to adjust programs to comply with cost requirements.
(d) In all cases where reductions are made by the Department, appeals shall be considered through the liaison analyst assigned to the county with final decisions being made by the Director.
