FISCAL IMPACT
This recommendation requests the City Manager to provide a contribution to Community Action Team to support the Long Beach Touch-A-Truck. The total appropriation increase of $5,058 in the General Fund Group in the City Manager Department will be offset by a decrease of appropriation of 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 budgeted scope of duties and have a minimal impact on existing City Council priorities. There is no local job impact associated with the recommendation.
