Exhibit A - FY19 Budget Amendment #3 Detail Listing
1.Fleet Maintenance Fund - $40,000 (Budget Amendment)
Cover parts cost in excess of budget. Excessive heat has stressed the heavy duty vehicles in Fire
and Solid Waste departments.
2.PEG Fund - $25,000 (Budget Amendment)
Contract Labor has exceeded budget due to increased programming. Expenses will be within the
not-to-exceed amount of the contract, however, less than the full amount was included in the
budget based on prior year’s actual expenses.
3.Employee Benefits Fund - $185,000 (Budget Amendment)
Claims in Medical and Pharmacy have continued to rise throughout the year; however, revenues
have been higher than budgeted (by a total of $465,000), offsetting this increase and resulting
in a net increase of $185,000.
4.Utility Customer Service (UCS) Credit Card Processing Costs - $75,000 (Budget Amendment)
This item will cover the unexpected increase in credit card processing costs associated with utility
payments. Budget originally anticipated a growth in costs, but actual FY19 credit card processing
costs have exceeded budget and are expected to grow due to increase credit card use from a
variety of financial institutions. This amendment will cover the remaining anticipated costs and
will be funded out of existing UCS Fund balance.
5.TIRZ18 funds redirected to GG CIP - $125,000 (Net Zero Budget Transfer) When TIRZ18 was
dissolved in FY18, the funds that would have resulted from it remaining in place were pledged to
the construction of City Hall. During the original FY19 budget process, the $125,000 was directed
toward the Debt Service Fund to offset any debt that would be incurred relating to the new City
Hall. After analysis, this funding is no longer needed in that Fund. The new City Hall will be funded
out of the General Government CIP Fund; therefore, the TIRZ18 funds that were pledged toward
that project need to be redirected to GG CIP.
