Budget Amendments (FY20-21) Meeting Feb 16, 2021 - Regular Meeting Category 4. Consent Agenda Type Action (Consent) Preferred Date Feb 16, 2021 Absolute Date Feb 16, 2021 Fiscal Impact Yes Budgeted Yes Budget Source Appropriation of restricted funds EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This budget amendment will update the 2020-21 adopted budget for the appropriation of restricted funds balances (from FY19-20) and grants. The District typically approves one budget amendment at midyear, and another at fiscal year-end. The adopted budget did not appropriate the restricted fund balance in the General Fund. Restricted fund balance consisted of unspent categorical funds, unspent grants and prior year encumbrances (Purchase orders). By mid year, the restricted funds are being used and it is recommended to clean up these accounts by appropriating it. In addition, there have been several grants received, that are being appropriated and Federal Grants are adjusted from the preliminary estimates to final approved amounts. Finally, there are just several line items that were corrected at the department level, such as when a supply expense is determined to be a fixed asset, or vice versa. These changes have a net effect of zero within the department, but are made to ensure the expense are in alignment with budget.
