Background and Analysis:
Background and analysis has not changed from first to second reading.
City Council may revise the City’s Capital Budget by approving an ordinance. Generally, budget amendments are presented quarterly to Council for their review and approval but may be made at any time during the year. The amended ordinances appropriate funds and provide authorization to expend the funds.
No separate ordinances were passed since the adoption of ordinance 7196 on June 11, 2019, relating to the Capital Budget.
The attached ordinance includes recommended amendments to the 2019 Capital Budget for: 1) 2018 year-end carry forward appropriations for the capital funds where the year-end carryovers were omitted in the 1st quarter budget amendment; and 2) department appropriation requests for the 2nd Quarter in 2019:
