Michelle,

Specifically, I'm looking for a report from the Governor's Finance Office that includes details of disbursements / expenditures made from this budget account. The state financial system (DAWN) shows expenditures at the general ledger level and the information from DAWN is uploaded to the Open Gov website at http://openbudget.nv.gov/OpenGov/ViewBudgetSummary.aep
The budget account you are looking for can be found under Checkbook, Elected Officials, Governors Office, you should see BA 1327 in the list.

Let me know if you need additional information.

Hi Susan,

Thanks so much for your help on this. I'm wondering if you are able to provide something more granular than the information provided through the checkbook. Specifically, is it possible to see a printout of individual expenditures from the account, rather than the version that does not get more detailed than the broad category of "Intragovernmental transfer"? Let me know - thanks!

Michelle

Hi Michelle,

The expenditures from BA 1327 are transfers to other budget accounts within the state. The original expense occurs in other accounts and then is reimbursed from this one. I have attached a download from the system for the intergovernmental transfers.

Using the link below there is a bulk download from the system that has more detail of all of the state's expenditures.

Choose the fiscal year you are looking for and on the right side of the page there is a report called 2021 Bulk CSV Expense Download.
