j DISCUSSION:
I On May 13, 2014, (M&C C-26796, Ordinance No. 21237-05-2014) the City Council approved the
ordinance increasing the estimated receipts and appropriations in the Stormwater Utility Fund and
i decreasing the unreserved undesignated fund balance in the amount of$5,000.00, for the purpose of
increasing the local match for the Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) program through the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Ordinance No. 21237-05-2014 included an in-kind contribution
from the Stormwater Utility Fund to the Grant Fund as a City match. FEMA has since informed the,City
that the $5,000.00 should be a cash transfer to the Grant Fund instead of an in-kind match; therefore, the
in-kind contribution needs to be rescinded and replaced with a cash transfer along with the Federal funds
awarded for this grant.
FISCAL INFORMATION /CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of above recommendations the
funds will be.available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, in the Grant Fund.
