Adopt the attached Appropriation Ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Water and Sewer Capital Projects Fund in an amount up to $550,000.00 from accepted Lot sales funds. DISCUSSION: This Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize the transfer of an amount up to $550,000.00 from the Water and Sewer Fund to the Water and Sewer Capital Projects Fund for funding future water and sewer capital projects in and around Lake Worth. The amount of funds being transferred represents FY2019 revenues from the sale of platted Lake Worth lots to lessees authorized by Council action on M&C L-15964 on November 8, 2016. Revenue is deposited into the Water and Sewer Fund rather than the Lake Worth Trust Fund as noted in M&C L-15964 because the Lake Worth Trust Fund has since been closed, and the Lake Worth lots were recorded as an asset in the Water and Sewer Fund at the time of Lake Worth's creation. This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 7. A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity. FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations, funds will be available in the current capital budget, as appropriated, of the Water and Sewer Capital Projects Fund. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the Water and Sewer Department has the responsibility of verifying the availability of funds. Submitted for City Manager's Office W.
