HEARING REQUIRED: No Hearing Required
SUMMARY:
After the beginning of each fiscal year a supplemental budget resolution is brought to City Council for consideration. This resolution includes appropriations for the following:
• FY 2019 encumbered purchase order balances net of contracts payable
Appropriations are carried forward to the new fiscal year for purchase orders issued by September 30, 2019 for which final payment had not been made. However, all work completed on outstanding purchase orders by September 30th is expenses to FY 2019 as contracts payable. Encumbrances carried forward to the new fiscal year are reduced by the amount expensed to contracts payable in the previous fiscal year.
• Appropriation of fund balance
In most funds, fund balance is appropriated to cover encumbrances carried forward.
• Increase in estimated revenues
In some funds, mostly related to various grants, estimated revenues are increased to balance the encumbered purchase order balances.
A second resolution to carry forward FY 2019 funding for items that were not encumbered will be brought forward for City Council’s approval on a separate resolution at the December 2019 City Council meeting.
