2-1907c. Conservation district financing; state financial assistance; certification of county moneys limitation; matching requirement; disbursement and distribution. On or before November 1 of each calendar year, each conservation district shall submit to the division a certification of the amount of money to be furnished by the county commissioners for conservation district activities for the ensuing calendar year. Such amount shall be the same as authorized for such purposes in each approved county budget.
For the purpose of providing state financial assistance to conservation districts and subject to the matching requirements as provided further, the division in the regular budget request, as a line item for the forthcoming fiscal year, shall submit a special request for an amount not less than the sum of the allocations of each county to each conservation district, but in no event to exceed the sum of $50,000 per district. Such $50,000 limitation shall be applicable for fiscal year 2026, and thereafter, subject to appropriations therefor.
The division, as soon as practicable after July 1 of the following year, shall disburse such moneys as may be appropriated by the state for this purpose to each conservation district on a $2 division moneys basis to a $1 county moneys basis to match the funds allocated by the commissioners of each county, except that the total amount disbursed shall not exceed $50,000 per district. Distribution shall be prorated in proportion to county allocations in the event that appropriations are insufficient for complete matching of funds.
Municipal accounting procedures shall be used in the distribution of and in the expenditure of all funds.
