AGENDA #4b
TO: Mayor and Town Council
FROM: W. Calvin Horton, Town Manager
SUBJECT: Annual Budget Amendment to Reappropriate Funds for Prior Year Encumbrances and Obligations
DATE: September 25, 2000
The attached budget amendment would appropriate funds for encumbrances in various funds from the 1999-2000 fiscal year.
As in past years, after fiscal year end, we ask the Council to amend the current year budget to provide funding for encumbrances for the prior fiscal year. Encumbrances are obligations incurred by issuance of purchase orders for which payments had not been made as of June 30, 2000, because materials or services had not yet been delivered. In accord with generally accepted accounting principles, these encumbrances are not included in expenditure totals for 1999-2000. Funds should now be reappropriated to the 2000-2001 budget for these encumbrances that will be paid during the current fiscal year.
Funds for these expenditures will be shown in special reserves of fund balance that will be created for this purpose in each fund. The amounts will be shown in the 1999-2000 Audit Report on the balance sheets for each fund under the heading "Fund Balance - Reserved for Encumbrances." While these expenditures will increase total expenditures in each fund for fiscal 2000-2001, they do not change the amount of fund balances available or unappropriated at June 30, 2000.
In addition to the reappropriations for encumbrances in various funds, the attached amendment would also reappropriate a net total of $418,754 allocated last year for various projects in the Capital Improvements Fund that were not completed in 1999-2000 (see attached list).
That the Council adopt the attached budget ordinance amendment reappropriating unexpended obligations from the 1999-2000 fiscal year.
