The City's PID Policy outlines the need to proactively work with the PID managers to oversee the services being provided by the PIDs and their associated financial positions. Staff, along with the contracted PID management companies, have conducted mid -year reviews of the Public Improvement District 7 - Heritage (Heritage PID) Annual Budget (Budget) and recommend the following adjustments. The City contracts with FirstService Residential Texas PID, LLC (FirstService) to manage the Heritage PID. FirstService has identified the need to decrease the Heritage PID Budget by the use of fund balance in the amount of $204,304.00, in order to align expenses with actual activities in the Budget and Five -Year Service Plan. The expense decrease can be attributed primarily to planned activities being postponed, reduced, or interrupted by COVID-19.
