Fiscal Note
The 2012 Adopted Parks Capital Budget provides funding of $300,000 for the Olive Jones Park Improvement Project.  Of this amount, $50,000 is to come from General Obligation Debt, $100,000 from Parks Development Fees (SI27), and $150,000 from private fundraising.  This resolution would raise total project authorization to $329,000, by transferring in $29,000 of unused and available funding from Capital Account #810404 "Pavement Improvements".   In addition, this resolution would reduce private fundraising by $100,000, and increase impact fee funding by $100,000.  New 2012 funding for the project would therefore total $329,000, and be derived from $50,000 of General Obligation Debt, $50,000 from private fundraising, $200,000 from Parks Development Fees (SI27), and $29,000 from available fund transfers from another capital project.  In addition, funding of $15,000 for Stevens Street Park (from SI27) is eliminated as the project is no longer planned.
