DATE:
February 8, 2005
SUBJECT:
2004-05 Budget Amendment
The proposed amendment to the Fiscal Year 2004-05 Budget, which will go before City Council on
February 141\ includes an amendment to the General Fund to increase the budget for outstanding
commitments for Mainstreet Program ($34,265), Emergency Management ($15,970) and
Dangerous Buildings - Garfield Project ($57,143). These projects were identified during the
budget process and it was acknowledged that the monies would need to be rolled over into the FY
2005 Budget. The items were not previously included when the encumbrance list was sent to
Council because the books for FY 2004 needed to be closed to find out the exact dollar amounts
needed to be carried forward.
Additionally, the proposed amendment to the FY 2005 Budget includes a decrease to the General
CIP Fund to close out the Glen Meadows Project ($112,533) and an increase to the Grant Fund for
the City's share of the Southeast Texas Trauma Regional Advisory Council Grant ($648).
Please call myself, Cynthia Alexander or Shelley Wolny with any questions. Thanks.
