TITLE
Recommendation to approve the Fiscal Year 2020 first departmental and fund budget appropriation adjustments in accordance with existing City Council policy. (Citywide)
DISCUSSION
On September 3, 2019, the City Council adopted the Appropriations Ordinance governing the City’s Adopted Budget for Fiscal Year 2020 (FY 20). Periodically, changes in revenue or operating conditions require mid-year appropriation adjustments. For example, in certain cases, these adjustments enable departments to expend recently awarded grant revenue for which there is no existing appropriation. In addition, changes for multi-year grants/projects are necessary to bring appropriations in line with final grant/project award amounts. In accordance with the City’s practice, these adjustments are presented periodically throughout the year to the City Council for consideration. Please see Attachment A for a Summary of Proposed Adjustments of impacted City funds, Attachment B for a recap of FY 20 General Fund Group Expenditure Budget Adjustments, and Attachment C for a summary of appropriation adjustments within relevant departments to implement the City Council-approved amendments to current Terms and Conditions for the Association of Long Beach Employees (ALBE) Skilled and General Basic Unit, Firefighters Association (FFA) MOU, Service Employees International Union, Local 721 (SEIU) MOU and Police Officers Association MOUs.
This matter was reviewed by Deputy City Attorney Amy R. Webber on February 26, 2020.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
The following requests for adjustments to FY 20 departmental and fund appropriations are necessary to reflect changes in operating conditions. City Council action is requested on March 17, 2020, to enable the timely processing of budget adjustments.
