July 26, 198 G-5699 Ordinance Human Relations iar 2
In February, 1982, the Human Relations Commission moved its offices from the
former Library Building to 600 Texas Street (M&C C-6133) At that time, City
staff's proposal included Leasing 2,830 feet in the building owned by Commerce
Mortgage Bankers, Inc.
The additional rent costs were financed during the remainder of fiscal year
1981-82 by savings generated from the disconnection of utilities at the former
Library Building These funds were budgeted in the Transportation and Public
,Works Department's Building Services Division and did not affect the Human
Rela.~i~s C~oi~ta"ss3on~°s 1981-82 operating budget.
Since the rent payments originally were funded. using savings from the Transpor-
tation and Public Works' budget, the Human Relations Commission did not include
rent in its 1982-83 budget requests. However, the Commission became responsible
for rent payments beginning October 1, 1982, and its operating budget will be
charged a total of $21,225 during the current fiscal year.
Furthermore, salary and fringe. benefit costs of employees paid out of the EEOC
grant were not correctly projected during the 1982-83 budget preparations. It
is now estimated that the totals for these items will exceed the total grant
allocation ($99,000) by $4,267.
Fi~a~,ly, ~~ever~a3.'-non?~~alaried items were underbudgeted based on an assumption
that grant funds would cover any shortfall. Telephone charges and postage
make up the bulk of the projected $4,008 in overruns The sum of all the
over-expenditures which total $29,500 will cause the Human Relations Commission
to exceed its 1982-83 adopted budget allocations by the end of July, 1983
FINANCING
A supplemental appropriation in the amount of $29,500 is requested to prevent
major budget overruns
