In addition to traditional budget development and administration responsibilities, analysts provide management consulting services to County agencies upon request.
Each analyst is assigned a number of county agencies and/or capital programs. The analyst is responsible for coordinating and developing recommendations on all resource allocation activities and issues relating to their agencies throughout the year.
