Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:
Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.
DRMC 20-1(c) states that upon completion of a capital improvement project, any remaining unexpended budget balance shall be
closed and any unexpended appropriations shall be returned to the fund balance of the capital fund or enterprise fund from which the project originated. For capital improvement projects that were funded, but never initiated, legislative approval is required to rescind budget. This companion ordinance rescinds $2,420,000 of capital improvement funds from capital projects listed below that were never started and are no longer necessary. The idle funding has been returned to fund balance to support the financial position of the Capital Improvement Program and appropriated as part of the 2021 annual budget.
