CITY COUNCIL MEMO
2026-501
MEETING OF APRIL 21, 2026
TO: Mayor Rawn and City Council
THROUGH: Steven Dotson, Chief Financial Officer
FROM: Holly Black, Budget Director
SUBJECT: 2025 Reappropriation Amendment
RECOMMENDATION:
To reduce the reappropriation amount added to the 2026 Budget pursuant to resolution 48-26 by $21,340,684
due to payments made against the 2025 budget which occurred after the adoption of resolution 48-26. These
amounts are reflected in the attached budget amendment.
BACKGROUND:
Each year it is necessary for the City Council to reappropriate funds for the new budget because of items that
were previously approved which were not yet completed or which were appropriated for future time periods.
This was done in 2026 pursuant to resolution 48-26 adopted at the February 17, 2026 City Council meeting.
DISCUSSION:
After that meeting, payments were submitted and processed for work done or services provided before
December 31, 2025. Therefore, these payments were appropriately booked as expenditures against the 2025
budget as required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Many of these expenditures were large in
amount and if the appropriations approved for their payment in 2026 are not reduced, it would result in over
appropriation of and possible deficits in 2026 individual funds. Therefore, this request (if approved) will adjust
the affected budgets to reflect appropriations no longer needed.
BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT:
The financial impact of approving this resolution is a decrease in the reappropriations and thus the total 2026
expenditure budget by $21,340,684 pursuant to the attached budget amendment.
