| TO: | City of New Port Richey City Council | | FROM: | Crystal S. Feast | | DATE: | 1/3/2017 | | RE: | Amendment to FY17 Operating Budget |
REQUEST:
The City Council is asked to review and approve the following amendment to the FY17 Adopted Budget, which would allow for the transfer of $2,620 from the Public Works Department to the Library Department and allow the Library to purchase a needed awning.
DISCUSSION:
As part of the FY17 Budget, funds have been budgeted in the Facilities Maintenance Division for repairs and maintenance of our City facilities. During an evaluation of an awning connected to the Library, it was determined by staff that it could no longer be repaired and that a new awning would have to be purchased.
As stated in the City’s Code of Ordinances, only by motion of the City Council may funds be transferred from one department to another (Ordinance No. 1354).
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that City Council approve the amendment to the FY17 Adopted Budget, which would allow for the transfer of funds from the Public Works Department to the Library Department and allow for the Library to purchase the awning.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:
The total amount of budget impact is an increase of $2,620 in Acct. #001-0051-571.62-99 in the Library Department and a corresponding decrease of $2,620 in Acct. #001-0106-519.34-99 in the Facilities Maintenance Division. | | | |
