Clark County explains budget modifications and unilateral budget modifications (UBMs)

Sep 2, 2025

County staff described two budget-change types — full budget modifications that change total contract amounts and UBMs that move funds between categories — and showed how to request UBMs on the PRF.

The full story

County presenters said there are two distinct budget-change processes for county contracts: a modification (MOD) and a unilateral budget modification (UBM).
