Budget Amendments EXECUTIVE SUMMARY City Council Meeting Date: April 5, 2016 AGENDA ITEM: Budget Amendments AGENDA SECTION: Consent PREPARED BY: Jeff May, Finance Director AGENDA NO. 6.h. ATTACHMENTS: Council Memo, Resolution, Donation Worksheets & Supporting Documents APPROVED BY: ddj RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to adopt A Resolution Approving the Amendment of Certain 2016 Budget Items. ISSUE Amend the General Fund budget to reflect donations expended during the 1st quarter of 2016, to the Council Department budget to acknowledge an additional $25,000 to be allocated from the SKB revenues for the continued issue related to the Emerald Ash Borer plan of action and for adjustments to the Building CIP Fund to reflect the final costs for the Steeple Center Addition. BACKGROUND This item is on the agenda for Council to formally amend the 2016 General Fund budget by resolution for donation items that Council had previously authorized covering expenditures made during the first quarter of 2016, for the additional SKB revenues for the Emerald Ash Borer issues and for the final costs for the Steeple Center addition. Previous SKB contracts specifically earmarked $25,000 per year for “landscaping” projects which in the last few years the City has designated for preparations for the growing Emerald Ash Borer threat. The most recent contract does not provide any specific landscape funds, so the City must designate the same $25,000 from the general SKB contract payment to the City to continue with the Emerald Ash Borer activities. The Steeple Center project still had outstanding bills as of January 1, 2016. Rather than try to assign 2015 funds, the staff found it easier procedurally to simply amend the 2016 budget to allow budget authority to complete the project. The actual cost of the project has not changed. Rather than bringing a resolution before the Council each time there is a need to spend money from donations previously received, we have developed procedures that allow us to have you authorize the expenditure and amend the budgets at the time the expenditure is made and then periodically bring to you a resolution that formally amends the budgets for a number of these donation expenditures. The attached memo and donation worksheets support the figures given in the resolution. SUMMARY Recommend the above motion to approve the budget amendments for the 1st quarter of 2016.
