Budget Award Criteria and Rating Form (2).docx Complete the GFOA rating form in
electronic format and then write a memo to me that contains the following information: 1. A
section providing background information on the jurisdiction whose budget you analyze. 2.
Separate sections that summarize your ratings in each of the GFOA rating categories (Policy
Document, Financial Plan, Operations Guide, and Communications Guide). These sections
should provide a cogent, concise discussion focusing only on those criteria and ratings that
significantly influenced your overall rating for each category. Don’t discuss your ratings on
all the criteria in these sections, only the most important criteria in your opinion. 3. A
section focusing on the one GFOA rating category (Policy Document, Operations Guide,
Financial Plan, or Communications Device) that you think is the most important category in
evaluating a jurisdiction’s budget document. In this section, analyze in more depth the
budget’s strengths and weaknesses relative to the criteria in this category. Explain why you
think the category you selected is so important and use course readings or other course
content (or readings/research that are not a part of the course content) to support your
argument. #Write #GFOA #rating #category #Policy #Document #Operations
