SUBJECT
(ALL) Adopt Appropriation Ordinance to Increase Estimated Receipts and Appropriations in Fiscal Year 2025 in the General Capital Projects
Fund by $6,500,000.00, from a Transfer of Previously Appropriated Operating Funds, for the Future Community Partnerships Programmable
Project to Support Funding of the National Cowgirl Museum Hall of Fame Project; and Amend the Fiscal Years 2025-2029 Capital Improvement
Program
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the General Capital Projects Fund in Fiscal
Year 2025 in the amount of $6,500,000.00, from a previously authorized appropriation in and transfer from the General Fundfor the Property
Management Department, for the purpose of funding the Future Community Partnerships Programmable Project (City Project No. P00047)
to fund a one-time capital contribution to support the construction of the National Cowgirl Museum Hall of Fame Project (City Project No.
106657); and
2. Amend the Fiscal Years 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to enact a capital appropriation in the fiscal year 2025 budget from an operating
transfer that was authorized for that year.
As approved on September 16, 2025, M&C 25-0812 appropriated Interest Earnings in Fiscal Year 2025 for various transfers to capital, including
$6,500,000.00 for the purpose of funding a one-time capital contribution to support the construction of the National Cowgirl Museum Hall of Fame
Project (City Project No. 106657).
Although the transfer out was appropriated in the operating fund for a transfer to the Future Community Partnerships Programmable Project (City
Project No. P00047), the capital appropriation to the programmable project was errantly ommited from the M&C. Approval of this M&C will
increase capital appropriations in Fiscal Year 2025, thus completing the transfer and intended action.
Funding for this project was not included in the FY2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program due to the timing and availability of interest earnings.
The action in this M&C will amend the FY2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program as approved in connection with Ordinance 27107-09-2024.
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 funds are currently available in the General Fund for the Property Management Department and upon
approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the National Cowgirl
Museum HOF project. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the FWLab Department has the responsibility of verifying the availability of funds.
