AP ROVED TO FORM AND LEGALITY: /-a�lty orney -,- &A-4- Date Adopted Effective City of Fort Worth, Texas Mayor and Council Communication DATE REFERENCE NUMBER LOG NAME PAGE 05/30/95 **G11106 36TRNCLS 1 of 1 SUBJECT I SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION FOR ADDITIONAL FIRE TRAINEE CLASS RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Adopt the attached Supplemental Appropriations Ordinance increasing General Fund appropriations by $180,500.00 and decreasing the unreserved, undesignated General Fund balance by the same amount, and 2. Authorize the expenditure of $180,500.00 for an additional fire trainee class of 15 persons. DISCUSSION: On May 23, 1995, the City Council was informed through Informal Report 7920 of the Fire Department's request for an additional fire trainee class of 15 persons that is needed to eliminate current position vacancies and thus significantly reduce the need to deactivate fire companies on a daily basis. This trainee class does not increase the number of positions currently authorized for the Fire Department. The cost of this additional training class is $180,500.00. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Fiscal Services certifies that upon the adoption of the attached Supplemental Appropriations Ordinance, funds required for this expenditure will be available in the current operating budget of the General Fund. After this action, the undesignated, unreserved fund balance of the General Fund will be $29,134,999.00.
