Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:

Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.

In ongoing efforts to manage funds and reconcile cash, the Capital Planning and Programming division (CPP) has performed a review of funds in the Grants and Other Money Projects Funds (Fund Series 38000) to identify inactive funds and take steps to close them. A total of 261 funds have been identified for closure (see Appendix A for funds with a cash balance and Appendix B for funds with no cash balance). Of the 261 funds identified for closure, 33 funds have a cash balance (positive or negative) with a net cash balance of $143,837.46. For these funds, there has been no financial activity in at least five years and the related grant or funding agreement is closed and complete.

 

This ordinance requests authorization to close the said funds, rescind and transfer the net cash balance of $143,837.46 to the Capital Improvement Fund (Fund Series 31000).  Once the cash transfers are complete, DOF will close the funds in the financial system of record. The cash transfer amounts may be adjusted pending transactions that may occur before the transfers take place.
