Title
Amending the 2017 Capital Budgets for the Sewer Utility and Stormwater Utility to adjust special assessment budget authority to match the final assessment amounts in completed projects.
Body
WHEREAS, at the time of Capital Budget adoption, budgeted special assessment amounts are estimates that often precede the full project design. Upon project completion and final special assessment calculation, assessment receipts may be realized in excess of the budgeted assessment funding, and
WHEREAS, completed projects from past years have final assessments amounts determined and sufficient budget authority must exist within the project in order for that revenue to be allocated to the project, and
WHEREAS, in order to remain budget-neutral, the required increase in special assessment budget authority can be offset by an equal reduction in existing revenue bond authority for Sewer Utility and Non-GF GO authority for Stormwater Utility;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the adopted 2017 Capital Budgets for the Sewer Utility and Stormwater Utility be amended to increase special assessment revenue authority to match final assessment amounts in completed projects and to reduce borrowing authority by an equal amount.
