Title

AN ACT CONCERNING SUPPLEMENTARY APPROPRIATIONS for the purpose of declaring additional revenue and appropriating to the General Fund, Internal Service Fund, Special Revenue Fund and Enterprise Fund to provide for costs that were not anticipated and included in the Approved Fiscal Year 2025 Budget.

 

Background

General Fund Revenue Changes:

This legislation provides additional appropriation authority totaling $10,785,900 in the General Fund.  The additional resources will increase the Fiscal Year 2025 General Fund Budget from $4,588,593,200 as expressed in CB-45-2024 to $4,599,379,100. The legislation appropriates additional use of unassigned fund balance (increase of $10.8 million) as the revenue source.

 

American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (SLFRF) Agency Reallocations in the General Fund and Internal Service Fund:

Under the SLFRF grant program, the County was required to obligate 100% of the ARPA funds by December 31, 2024, and expend 100% of the funds by December 31, 2026. To meet the obligation deadline, the County moved $44.8 million in Police Department sworn salary expenditures from the General Fund to the ARPA grant. Based on this action, this legislation reallocates approximately $44.8 million in appropriation from the Police Department to various agency operating budget appropriations to allow the agencies to spend their remaining SLFRF projects within the General Fund.

 

 Other General Fund Adjustments:

This legislation increases the expenditure appropriation by (1) $6,814,000 to support additional funding needs for the FY 2025 snow and ice control season as administered by the Department of Public Works and Transportation; (2) $3.0 million for a PAYGO (“pay-as-you-go”) transfer to the Strategic IT Initiatives capital project (#8.23.0002) under Non-Departmental that did not occur as budgeted in FY 2024; (3) $400,000 transfer to the Fair Election Special Revenue Fund that did not occur in FY 2024 as budgeted; and (4) $571,900 to address projected overages in the Department of the Environment due to additional overtime costs in the Animal Services Division, large employee leave payouts and lower-than-anticipated staff attrition.

 

Internal Service Fund Adjustments:

This legislation also includes a transfer of $737,800 from the General Fund to the Information Technology Internal Service Fund to reflect the transfer in of remaining former SLFRF project funds for the Office of Information Technology to support IT digitization and cybersecurity projects. Overall, the Fiscal Year 2025 Internal Service Fund Budget (Information Technology and Fleet Management) as expressed by CB-45-2024 increases from $76,573,200 to $77,311,000.

 

Special Revenue Fund Adjustments:

This legislation also includes a net adjustment of $5,048,900 to Special Revenue Fund reflect changes to the (1) Drug Enforcement and Education Special Revenue Fund to primarily reallocate resources to the proper expense character (net increase of $15,200); (2) Fair Election Special Revenue Fund to reflect a transfer of $400,000 from the General Fund that did not occur in FY 2024 (the $400,000 transfer-in is 100% offset by removal of the appropriated fund balance revenue allocation); (3) Housing Investment Trust Fund to reflect a transfer in of $4.1 million from the remaining former SLFRF project funds primarily support the Affordable Housing - Right of First Refusal and Housing Rehab Assistance programs; and (4) Transportation Services Improvement Special Revenue Fund to reflect the PAYGO transfer of $900,000 to the Bus Mass Transit/Metro Access 2 (#4.66.0006) capital project (this capital project currently has spending appropriation in the current year but the $900,000 in special revenue funding was not transferred to the project in FY 2024). Overall, the Fiscal Year 2025 Special Revenue Fund Budget as expressed by CB-45-2024 increases from $293,539,100 to $298,588,000.

 

Enterprise Fund Adjustments:

Finally, this legislation also includes a transfer of $1,486,200 from the General Fund to the Stormwater Management Enterprise Fund to reflect the transfer in of remaining former SLFRF project funds for the Department of the Environment to support a flood study.  Overall, the Fiscal Year 2025 Enterprise Fund Budget (Solid Waste, Stormwater Management and Local Water Quality) as expressed by CB-45-2024 increases from $262,062,700 to $263,548,900.
