Title
Amending the 2006 Fire Department Operating Budget to reflect the new state funding formula.
Body
Last fall, the State sent the Fire Department a notice that the formula was changing for the emergency medical services program. Further information and the application was sent to the City early this year.
The funding received is for two fiscal years due to the delay by the State while working on the new formula. The State has indicated that this funding cannot replace existing local emergency medical services funding. Funds can be used for training, quality assurance and other expenses related to improving the emergency medical services program. Any balance not spent for these purposes must be carried over for future use for the emergency medical services program.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the 2006 Operating Budget be amended by adding $68,211.31 to expense account GN01-54950-722310 (consulting services) and $68,211.31 to revenue account GN01-73275-722310 (EMS Program Funds) ;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the revenue for this program in the Fire Operating Budget deposited in account number GN01-73224-722310 (EMS Funds-Act 102) be transferred to account number GN01-73275-722310 (EMS Program Funds);
BE IT STILL FURTHER RESOLVED THAT funds not spent must be carried forward for future spending on this program.
