Budget Amendments

A Budget Amendment (BA) is the mechanism used to revise the working budget to reflect changes that occur throughout the fiscal year. Once the working budget is completed, it can only be changed by Budget Amendment. Budget amendments are occasionally necessary, and should be filed with the Division of Local Government (DLG) when adopted by a local government.
