The primary purpose is to remove the funding and expenditures asso- ciated with the mill and overlay project that will be completed in 2017. History The 2017 budgets were adopted on December 12, 2016. Current Circumstances The 2017A Bonds, which will be presented to the Council for approval on June 12, include the issuance of permanent improvement revolving (PIR) Bonds to finance the 2017 street mill and overlay projects supported by special assessments. The bond resolution also includes establishment of the PIR Fund which will allow the City more flexible use of revenues from special assessments. For the City’s annual street mill and overlay projects, financed with PIR Bonds, the revenues can then be used for any authorized purpose of the PIR Fund. For example, special assess- ments collected from a previous improvement could be used to provide upfront funding for the future improvement. PIR Fund Bonds are secured by revenues of the Fund and not solely by the special assessments of the financed improvements. Since the funding and expenditures will be accounted for in the newly created PIR fund, the General Fund budget should be amended to remove the $300,000 fund- ing and $300,000 related expenditure for the mill and overlay project. Conclusion The Council should consider amending the General Fund budget to remove the funding and related expenditure for the mill and overlay project. ISSUES: Due to the establishment of the new PIR fund as part of the 2017A bond issuance and sale resolution mentioned above, staff is recommending amendment of the General Fund budget as detailed below. 2 FINANCIAL IMPACT: To accurately reflect expenditures and funding on the quarterly financial reports and for year ending 12/31/2017, the budget should be amended as follows: Fund 2017 Budget Amendment General Fund – Remove Mill & Overlay Bond Proceeds $300,000 General Fund – Remove Mill & Overlay Expenditures 300,000 Net Impact on General Fund Bal- ance $0 ALTERNATIVES: 1.
