Decrease appropriations in the General Fund Group in the Citywide Activities Department by $350 to offset a transfer to the City Manager Department.
DISCUSSION
The Long Beach LGBTQ Center seeks to advance equity for all LGBTQ people through advocacy, education, programs and service. In support of this mission, they will be hosting the Black and White Ball on June 25, 2022 as a way of highlighting the important work being done in the LGBTQ community and to emphasize Long Beach’s important role as a leading city on equity and LGBTQ progress. For these reasons the City of Long Beach should support this event.
This matter was reviewed by Budget Manager Grace H. Yoon on May 11, 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT
This recommendation requests the City Manager Department to provide a contribution to the Center Long Beach in support of the Black and White Ball. The total appropriation increase of $350 in the General Fund Group in the City Manager Department will be offset by a decrease of appropriation of the Third Council District One-Time District Priority Funds in the General Fund Group in the Citywide Activities Department. The requested action is anticipated to require a minimal level of staff hours beyond the normal budgeted scope of duties and expected to have minimal impact on existing City Council priorities. There is no local job impact associated with the recommendation
