TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
[Timing Considerations]
FISCAL IMPACT
This recommendation requests the City Manager to provide contributions to California Families in Focus to support the Trans Pride Long Beach Festival. The total appropriation increase of $600 in the General Fund Group in the City Manager Department will be offset by a decrease in appropriation of the Third Council District One-Time District Priority Funds and Fourth Council District One-Time District Priority Funds in the General Fund Group in the Citywide Activities Department. This recommendation is anticipated to require a minimal level of staff hours beyond the budgeted scope of duties and is expected to have minimal impact on existing City Council priorities.
EQUITY LENS STATEMENT:
Staff will consider issues of equity and access with any program proposals brought forward to ensure the City’s commitment for everyone reaching their highest level of health and potential for a successful life, regardless of background, neighborhood, or identity.
