SUBJECT ADOPTION OF SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING SUBSIDY OF THE
AREA METROPOLITAN AMBULANCE AUTHORITY AMAA
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt the attached supplemental appropriation ordinance increasing appropriations
by $670,000.00 in the~General Fund and decreasing the unreserved, undesignated
fund balance of the General Fund by the same amount, and
2. Approve a $670,000.00 payment to the Area Metropolitan Ambulance Authority (AMAA).
DISCUSSION:
The AMAA, created in 1988, provides exclusive ambulance service to Fort Worth and nine
other cities. Originally€designed as a fee for service system, the AMAA suffered
financial difficulties early on due to unrealized collection rate projections and the
high number of indigent patients. A process has since been implemented to continue to
identify and institute more efficient collection procedures, and the AMAA's financial
position has improved substantially. In FY 1990-91 the City approved a subsidy of
$3,093,596.00.
With approval of this M&C the budgeted subsidy for FY 1991-92 will be $1,739,459.00.
The anticipated subsidy for FY 1992-93 is $2,419,458.00.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Fiscal Services certifies that, upon approval of recommendation number
1, sufficient funds will be available in the operating budget of the General Fund for
this expenditure.
After this transaction the unreserved, undesignated portion of the General Fund Balance
is $19,674,221.00.
