APR 3 1990 BOOK 79 f"uC"413 <br />E. Budget Amendment 055 -_Utilities <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated 3/28/90: <br />TO: Members of the Board <br />of County Commissioners <br />DATE: March 28, 1990 <br />SUBJECT: BUDGET AMENDMENT 055 — <br />UTILITIES <br />CONSENT AGENDA <br />FROM: Joseph A. Baird/� <br />OMB Director <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />The attached budget amendment reflects an increase in costs to the <br />Utility Department due to the expansion of the system. The large <br />increase in the sewer department Debt Service in the amount of <br />$460,000 is due to the early completion of the Gifford Sewer Project. <br />This item was not budgeted in the Utility operating budget; however, <br />the Debt Service was capitalized in the original bond issue; <br />therefore, the cash was available in the Gifford Capital Project <br />fund. Debt Service was increased in the water department by $70,000 <br />to reflect a change in the allocation of utilities overall debt. <br />Engineering Services were increased in the sewer department to <br />reflect the obligation with Post, Buckley, Schuh, and Jernigan to <br />develop the master plan. The increase of the Engineering Services <br />budget in the water department is due to the expansion and costs of <br />taking over utility systems. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve <br />budget amendment 055. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Wheeler, the Board unanimously approved <br />Budget Amendment 055 - Utilities, as set out in the <br />above staff recommendation. <br />
