Impact Statement
Purpose of proposed legislation and background information
The Over-expenditure Ordinance is primarily intended to allow bureaus to make technical adjustments and other revisions to their current year budget. However, bureaus are also permitted to request General Fund Unrestricted Contingency resources to address exigent needs preventing over-expenditure in bureau funds.
Financial and budgetary impacts
Approval of the exhibits to this ordinance reflect several individual budget changes in 29 funds, with a net total appropriation increase of $31,751,811 All changes are summarized in Exhibit 1.
Economic and real estate development impacts
Not applicable
Community impacts and community involvement
The Over-Expenditure Ordinance happens late in the fiscal year and, in a short timeframe, addresses mostly technical issues. There is little to no time for community involvement other than the public hearing. Community impacts in the ordinance are minimal as they reflect changes to budgets to match anticipated actual spending in order to avoid overspending any given appropriation category.
