BACKGROUND:
At the end of Fiscal Year 2024-25, the City had outstanding purchase orders for goods and services for which vendor invoices had not yet been received. Under existing accounting procedures, these purchase orders were carried forward into the current fiscal year.
Departments requested re-appropriation of unencumbered funds for specific projects in various stages of completion at the end of Fiscal Year 2024-25, including capital improvement projects.
Budgeted Fiscal Year 2025-26 cash balance forward accounts must be reconciled to ending Fiscal Year 2024-25 balances with the closing of the prior fiscal year.
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:
At the end of Fiscal Year 2024-25, departments were in various stages of completion for planned capital improvements and approved contractual relationships. A line-by-line detail is attached as an exhibit. The carry-forward of funds will allow these projects to continue.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$212,927,661 is available and requested for re-appropriation from Fiscal Year 2024-25 to Fiscal Year 2025-26 to complete projects that were budgeted in the prior fiscal year; to support new areas that have evolved since the budget was adopted; and to reconcile cash balance forward accounts for all funds.
