from Fund Balance or increased appropriations or when shifting funding between initiatives without increasing the overall total budget. Approval of
a CCPD budget amendment requires action public hearings and action by both the Board and the City Council.

at its November 10, 2020 meeting. This M&C, if approved, will amend the CCPD Equipment, Tech & Infrastructure Initiative by $288,000.00 and
decrease the budgeted contribution to fund balance by the same amount. These amendments do not increase the FY2021 Crime Control and
Prevention District budget. The total FY2021 CCPD budget remains $86,570,462.00.
