CITY OF DUBLIN AGENDA STATEMENT CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: June 13, 1994 SUBJECT: 1993-94 Budget Modification with Regard to Article XIII B of the State constitution tI9 (Prepared by: Paul S.. Rankin, Assistant city Mgr) EXHIBITS ATTACHED: None RECOMMENDATION:I1.WAuthorize Staff to appropriate any Revenues in excess \UU'~ of Budgeted Expenditures as of June 30, 1994, to \ Reserves.. FINANCIAL STATEMENT: This report and action will simply provide that all revenues received in excess of eXPenditures are appropriated.. Actual amounts will be identified .after the books are closed and all accruals have been made.. DESCRIPTION: This report requests authorization for all revenues received in excess of expenditures to be appropriated.. The actual amounts involved will be determined at the close of the Fiscal Year.. In accordance with the City Council Budget study Session on March 2, 1994, any 1993/94 OPerating Surplus was to be reserved to address economic uncertainty that may result from the state of California budget deliberations.. The state constitution limits the amount of appropriations which are made from the "Proceeds of Taxes".. The City is currently well below the maximum Appropriations Limi t.. The methodology for accounting for appropriations which will be Subject to the Limit, allows funds to be appropriated to Reserves.. When the Reserve Funds are eventually used they would not be Subject to the appropriations limit in the year that they were used, since they had been previously "appropriated" under the liait authorized in a prior year. The specific action requested in this report is for the city Council to authorize the appropriation of All excess revenues to Reserves. This will preclude the need for the city Council to take any further action to account for differences between the estimates and the actual final Fiscal Year 1993/94 revenues and expenditures. In taking this action the City council acknowledges that the appropriation of excess revenues is a setting aside of the funds into a Reserve for Economic Uncertainties as well as various projects or expenses that require more than one year to complete.. staff recommends that the city council authorize the appropriation of any or all excess revenues to reserves in conformance with this report.
