The General Fund is the County’s primary operating fund and is used to track the revenues and expenditures associated with the basic County services that are not required to be accounted for in other funds. This includes services such as Sheriff, Assessor, Clerk, Treasurer, Administration, and other support services such as Finance and Human Resources. These services are funded by general purpose tax revenues and other revenues that are unrestricted. This means that the County Commissioners, with input from the public, has the ability to distribute the funds in a way that best meets the needs of the community as opposed to other funds that are restricted to predefined uses.
