TITLE
WITHDRAWN
Recommendation to increase appropriations in the General Fund Group in the City Manager Department by $9,363 offset by the Fourth Council District One-Time District Priority Funds transferred from the Citywide Activities Department to provide funds to the California Dental Association Foundation who will host CDA Cares Long Beach in June 2023; and
Decrease appropriations in the General Fund Group in the Citywide Activities Department by $9,363 to offset a transfer to the City Manager Department.
DISCUSSION
The California Dental Association is hosting the CDA Cares event in the City of Long Beach at the Long Beach Convention and Entertainment Center. This 3-day event is a free, volunteer-led dental clinic that will provide services to approximately 2,000 Long Beach residents. Medical personnel such as dentists, dental hygienists, physicians, and nurses will all be donating their time to bring this event to the community. The estimated cost of dental services provided for free to the attendees is $1.5 million. A contribution to the foundation will assist in funding venue logistics.
This matter has been reviewed by Budget Analyst Joe R. Guerrero on November 28, 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT
This recommendation requests the City Manager Department to provide funds to the California Dental Association Foundation who will host CDA Cares Long Beach in June 2023. The total appropriation increase of $9,363 in the General Fund Group in the City Manager Department will be offset by a decrease of appropriation of 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 time beyond normal budgeted scope of duties and is expected to have minimal impact on existing City Council priorities.
SUGGESTED ACTION
Approve recommendation.
Respectfully Submitted,
DARLY SUPERNAW, COUNCILMAN
