393.08 ESTIMATES TO COUNTY BOARD; HENNEPIN, JOINT COUNTIES VARY.
    Subdivision 1. By social services agency. As scheduled by the county board of
commissioners each year, the local social services agency, except any such board referred to in
section 393.01, subdivision 3, shall submit to the county board of commissioners an estimate of
the amount needed by it to perform its duties, including expenses of administration, and the
county board of commissioners shall consider the estimates so submitted and, if approved, shall
levy a tax as provided by law for the purposes. In the event the estimate is not approved, the
county board of commissioners shall confer with the local social services agency and adjust a
budget in accordance with the facts and levy a tax for the amount required.
In counties referred to in section 393.01, subdivision 3, the estimate required shall not
include institutional requirements in any city of the first class located therein. The tax levy by
the county board of commissioners in such counties shall be such as is required for public
assistance, poor relief and categories of aid under the federal Social Security Act, and shall be
separate and distinct from other levies made by it. The governing body of any such city of the
first class may annually levy a tax for institutional requirements as authorized by such home rule
charter, on the real and personal property within the corporate limits of such city. Such tax levy
and the proceeds thereof shall be subject to the same control and supervision as is imposed on
any existing public welfare tax levy.
In counties referred to in section 393.01, subdivision 7, the estimate required to fund
the public welfare programs of the single local social services agency, including expense of
administration, shall be submitted to the boards of county commissioners who are parties to the
agreement. Each board of county commissioners shall consider the estimate so submitted and
shall confer with the board of county commissioners from the other counties who are a party to
the agreement in determining the amount of funds to be assessed against each county for purposes
of funding the welfare program.
    Subd. 1a. Except Ramsey County. This section does not apply to Ramsey County.
