FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
The biennial budget adopted in June 2018 included fiscal years (FY) 2018-2019 and 2019-2020. The first year of the budget (FY 2018-2019) was adopted by resolution and the second year (FY 2019-20) was approved as a spending plan.

Projected year-end transfers to other funds, including the Stormwater Fund, Street Lighting Fund, and Pension Stabilization Trust Fund, total approximately $1.6 million. In addition, the budget included transfers out to the CIP Fund ($547,600) and IT Fund ($600,299) for one-time projects. Taking into account year-end projections and all anticipated transfers, the unreserved General Fund balance is projected to be $5.5 million at fiscal year-end.
