transfer. The Electric Operating Fund will continue to have sufficient working capital to meet
all required reserve policies and recurring costs.
7. Fun For All Donor Plaza Project - $ 463,546 Fun for All Playground Fund (Budget

and Recreation Department and Capital Improvements. This will draw down fund balance in
the Fun For All Fund to zero.
