From the supplier: A local government financial emergencies statute (FES) was approved by the Florida Government Finance Officers Assn in 1979 as a solution to the state of financial crisis experienced in several US cities. The FES was enacted to ascertain that local governments responsibly performed the proper steps to address the financial emergency. Certain criteria for determining financial emergency in local governments are established by Florida's FES. A financial emergency is determined by several factors including failure to pay employees' salaries for one pay period due to lack of funds.
