RE:Consideration of Amendment to the FY 19/20 Adopted Budget - Page 66

REQUEST:

The Board is asked to review and approve the following amendment to the FY 19/20 Adopted Budget, which totals $101,780 and would allow for the following:

 

  • cover costs incurred developing a branding strategy

  • engage a consultant to develop a Master Plan for US Hwy 19 & Entryway into City 

  • cover costs of trash removal expenses associated with property purchased during the fiscal year

  • cover increased insurance costs of CRA related property

  • engage a consultant to develop design for US Hwy 19/Main St. Gateway Entrance

 

The projects, where the funds are coming from, are being deferred until next fiscal year; thereby, making those funds available for use. 




DISCUSSION:

As stated in the City’s Purchasing Policy, any significant or capital purchases or improvements that are not part of the original budget must go before the Board for approval.




RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the Board approve the attached amendment to the FY 19/20 Adopted Budget, which totals $100,780 and would allow for the items listed above. 




BUDGET / FISCAL IMPACT:

The adjustment results in the transfer of $100,780 within the CRA Fund.  Therefore, there is no effect to the overall budgeted amount for the CRA.
