Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:
Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.
The Budget and Management Office performs ongoing reviews of Special Revenue Funds to identify inactive funds and take actions to close them. As a follow-up action from BMO’s most recent review in 2019/2020, BMO requests authorization to close 13 Special Revenue Funds. Together, these Funds have a net balance of approximately $644,600. BMO requests to transfer approximately $694,400 from SRFs to the General Fund; to then transfer approximately $50,300 from the General Fund to the Economic Opportunity Fund and approximately $89,800 within the Economic opportunity Fund to restore negative balances in that Fund series to $0; and to transfer approximately $480 from within the General Government Fund Series to transfer the cash balance of the City Council Personal Meals Fund to the City Council Special Revenue Fund. Amounts are approximate because they may change slightly pending transactions that may occur before the cash transfers take place. Once the cash transfers are complete, the BMO will work with the Controller’s Office to close said funds in Workday, the financial system of record.
