A government unit will be considered a “branch” of a primary government for the purpose of determining award program fees if it meets the following conditions:
- The government unit is included in the financial reporting entity of another government which is a primary government and a GFOA member, and submits or has in the past submitted an ACFR to the COA program
- The government unit is or includes one or more separate funds or blended component units of the primary government and is not a fiduciary component unit of the primary government.
Fiduciary and discretely presented component units are not considered branches and must be members or non-members in their own right.
