Budget Award Fees

Important Update: Award Program Fees

Over the past six years, we have maintained award program fees without change. During that time, we’ve continued to enhance our review processes, provide in-depth feedback, and ensure secure and efficient systems for applicants — all to deliver the high-quality support you expect.

To sustain and strengthen this level of service, we will be updating our award program fees for applications submitted on or after August 1, 2025. Click here to view the revised fee schedule for the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award.

Fees for the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award are calculated based on size using the same categories used for GFOA membership. The chart below identifies annual fees by type of government.
