I don't know; do you feel lucky? My recommendation is, AT LEAST, to transfer the $100 from capital outlay (this is a "placeholder" and there is no way you would buy anything that meets the definition of capital outlay for $100). I think that it's not a bad idea to transfer even a bit more appropriation from General Fund Contingency. As it is unlawful to expend in excess of appropriation and as the County received a letter from the Secretary of State's office requiring the BOCC to adopt a resolution describing its plans to avoid such unlawful events in the future, I'm a bit more sensitive to this issue this year. An Excel file has been attached. If it is determined that additional M & S appropriation is a good idea, just in case, please attach the Excel file via email to Marty, with a copy to Lacy, requesting that Finance prepare a resolution. Jeanine -----Original Message----­ From: Judith Ure Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2012 8:52 AM To: Jeanine Faria; David Inbody Subject: RE: General Fund/Grant Projects I don't plan to go go anywhere or purchase anything out of the ordinary during the remainder of the fiscal year, but I don't know what else is routinely charged to the grant projects budget. I'll defer to Dave Inbody to answer whether the remaining appropriation is adequate or if an adjustment needs to be made. Judith M. Ure Management Analyst Department of Administrative Services Deschutes County 541-330-4627 -----OriginaJ Message----­ From: Jeanine Faria Sent: Monday, May 14, 2012 3:32 PM To: Judith Ure; David Inbody Subject: General Fund/Grant Projects 1 The Materials & Services budget for the General Fund -Grant Projects Department for FY 2012 is $7,167. As of today, the actual expenditures plus what will be expended for ISF charges in June totals $6,900.67. This leaves $266.33 remaining appropriation for FY 2012. It appears a computer ($821.90) and some office furniture ($389.00) were purchased, yet hadn't been budgeted. There are some M & S items budgeted but nothing has yet been expended [telephone, printing, travel expenses and subscriptions]. If there are plans to expended more than $266.33 between now and June 30 (an expenditure occurs when the goods or services are received NOT when the items are paid for), then an appropriation transfer will be necessary. As you know it is unlawful to over expend a budgetary category. There is no downside to having too much appropriation. Please let me know if $266 will be sufficient for the rest of the fiscal year. If not, I will prepare a draft of excel file to serve as the basis for a resolution. Thank you.
