of funding handling charges for debt payments;

DISCUSSION:
The City's annual Operating Budget is formally enacted into law by City Council action adopting an
appropriation ordinance that establishes spending limits for each department's operation. The purpose of
this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to address mid-year adjustments to various funds as
described below.
Additional appropriations are needed in the Stormwater and Municipal Parking Debt Service Funds to
cover handling charges. These charges were not included in the Fiscal Year 2018 budget, but it has since
been determined these fees may be expended out of the debt fund.
Recommendation three includes appropriations to correct an unbalanced transfer for the public art
program. The transfer from the Water and Sewer Fund to support the public art program was budgeted
for the full amount of the program costs of$552,932.13, however the corresponding appropriation for the
program was $543,328.34, leaving a shortfall of$9,603.79 in the General Fund.
On October 10, 2017, M&C G-19129 established the Fiscal Year 2018 appropriations for the various
