Request for Board Action:
Agenda Text
The Board is requested to approve Budget Ordinance Amendment No. 20BCC000057 amending the Durham County Fire and Rescue District Fund (DCFR) and the General Fund budgets to allow for charging of radio maintenance fees ($16,621) directly from the DCFR fund (these fees are based off actual expenses encumbered, hence the delay in this final payment from FY 2018-19 expenses). This expense was originally budgeted to be paid in the General Fund by a transfer from DCFR, however Finance has requested it be paid directly from the DCFR Fund for increased transparency. There is no net effect on either budget; this is an administrative transaction.
Alignment with Strategic Plan: Goal 5 Efficient Government
Resource Persons: Susan Tezai, Chief Financial Officer; David Ades, Assistant Director of Budget and Management Services.
