COUNCIL DISTRICTS IMPACTED: N/A
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Funding was approved in the FY 2026 Adopted Budget for the purchase of event barriers to enhance safety at City events. Funding for this purchase was originally allocated to the Communications & Community Engagement Department due to its role in coordinating City events.
This budget amendment requests that the remaining funds be transferred to the Non-Departmental budget within the General Fund. The Non-Departmental budget is used to house costs that support multiple City departments. Because the coordination and implementation of this purchase will require collaboration among the Communications, Finance, and Public Works departments, staff recommends relocating the funds to the Non-Departmental budget.
This amendment does not change the overall General Fund budget; it simply reallocates funding from the Communications & Community Engagement Department to the Non-Departmental budget.
