Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:
Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.
This ordinance establishes the Planned Capital Equipment SRF, Fund Number 11876, in the General Government Series to support capital equipment purchases needed in General Fund agencies. Creating this fund addresses the immediate need to allow agencies to use 2019 year-end savings for needed capital equipment items without the constraints of year-end purchasing deadlines. A companion ordinance will rescind $1,327,348 in budget from the General Fund to make a cash transfer to this new fund.
Starting with the 2021 budget, this fund will be supported by an appropriated transfer from the General Fund. The transfer amount will be determined during the budget process and will reflect approved capital equipment needs. This fund is a cash-basis, non-lapsing. There will be multiple cost centers associated with the fund, which will be determined by the agencies and departments for whom capital equipment is approved for purchase in the fund. Each agency/department will be the expending authority over their approved capital equipment. Cost centers will be established administratively, as needed.
