This bill proposes an increase in the limit for transfers of appropriations in Carroll County, raising the threshold that triggers a more formal procedure. Specifically, it amends RSA 24:13-d, I to change the limit for transferring appropriations from $1,000 to $10,000. This means that any transfer of an appropriation, or any part thereof, exceeding $10,000, or an accumulative total exceeding $10,000, will require a written request from the department head to the county commissioners, who must then report their recommendation to the executive committee.

The bill also establishes an effective date for this change, stating that it will take effect on July 1, 2026. The adjustments made in the bill reflect a significant increase in the allowable amount for appropriation transfers, streamlining the process for departments within Carroll County while ensuring that larger transfers still undergo necessary oversight.
