Annual Operating Budgets
The City of Rock Hill prepares a rolling multi-year budget. "A rolling multi-year budget is a document that details a government's appropriations and revenues for two or more budgetary periods where each budget year's appropriations are adopted in each subsequent year."*
The City of Rock Hill prepares two annual budgets each year, one for the upcoming fiscal year and one for the following fiscal year. The City of Rock Hill's fiscal year runs from July 1 to June 30 of each year. The first fiscal year budget is adopted by City Council for implementation. The second fiscal year budget is approved by City Council as a financial plan. By doing this, the implications of current fiscal decisions can be seen in a subsequent fiscal year. Additionally, it gives policy makers a greater understanding of future resource and allocation needs

Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR)
At the end of each fiscal year, the City of Rock Hill prepares year-end financial statements in accordance with GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). These statements are contained in a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). The CAFR summarizes the financial activity of the governmental entity in much the same way as a private sector year-end audit would for a private sector business.
The City of Rock Hill hires an independent Certified Public Accounting firm to audit these statements and render a professional opinion as to the accuracy and integrity of the report.

Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)
A capital improvement [plan] "is a multi-year plan identifying capital projects to be funded during the planning period. The capital [plan] identifies each proposed capital project to be undertaken, the year in which it will be started or acquired, the amount expected to be expended on the project each year, and the proposed method of financing these expenditures."*
The City of Rock Hill prepares a CIP for a ten-fiscal year period. This financial planning tool is adopted by City Council each year about the same time as the Annual Operating Budget. Beginning in Fiscal Year 2006-2007, the CIP is included in the Annual Operating Budget document. Prior to FY 2006-2007, the CIP was published as a separate document. These documents are available below.
CIP FY 2005-2006 through FY 2014-2015
CIP FY 2004-2005 through FY 2013-2014
CIP FY 2003-2004 through FY 2012-2013
The projects listed in the current fiscal year in the CIP are tied to expenditures in the same fiscal year's operating budget. This information is useful to policy makers as they make financial decisions on current and future issues.
