In conformance with California Health & Safety Code Sections 40130 and 40131, the Shasta County Air Quality Management District (District) held a separate public hearing on June 5, 2018 for the purpose of reviewing the proposed fiscal year 2018/19 budget and to provide the public an opportunity to review and comment on the proposed budget.  The District made all required information (summary of the budget with all supporting documents, and a schedule of fees to be imposed by the District to fund its program) available to the public 30 days prior to that hearing, published and posted notice of the hearing and directly notified all permittees subject to fees imposed by the District in the preceding year of the availability of the hearing and the above-referenced information.  No public comments were received and no changes were made to the proposed budget at the June 5, 2018 public hearing.

The FY 2018/19 recommended budget includes revenue in the amount of $1.8 million and expenditures in the amount of $2.1 million.  Expenditures exceed revenues by $275,708 and will be funded with the use of fund balance.

The District budget proposed for FY 2018/19 reflects no General Fund support from Shasta County or the Cities.  It is important to note that approximately 95 percent of AB 2766 monies (DMV fees) are being used to insure compliance with the California Clean Air Act.  While the amount of DMV fees utilized by various Air Districts to ensure compliance with the California Clean Air Act varies, this Air District relies heavily on this funding source for basic operations.
