RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve an Appropriation Adjustment recognizing $1,788,395 in Criminal
Activity Revenue Funds (account 026-01-various) and appropriate same into
the Criminal Activity Expenditure Accounts (26-various-various).
DISCUSSION
The Police Department participates in Equitable Sharing Programs (asset
forfeiture) through various Federal, State and local agencies. Each agency
requires segregation of funds for audi ting purposes. The City has set
these segregated funds in Fund 26, Criminal Activities, in which there are
five separate activities (26-340, 26-342, 26-343, 26-344, and 26-345).
Federal guidelines for forfeitures forbid a local agency to appropriate
anticipated funds. This requires the Police Department to recognize and
appropriate revenues received during a fiscal year, independently of the
annual budget process.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the appropriation adjustment will increase revenues in the
Criminal Activities Revenue Accounts (26-01-various) and Criminal
Expenditure Accounts (26-various-various) by $1,788,395.
