Title

Approval of Budget Revision 2025-45 to Transfer Earmarked Funds in the Economic Development Division in General Fund to the Economic Development Fund Line

Recommended Action

I move that Council approve Budget Revision 2025-45 to transfer available funding for the Economic Development Projects in the amount of $9,226,250 and include Attachment A as part of minutes of this meeting.

County Manager's Recommendation

The County Manager recommends that Council approves budget revision 2025-45 as requested.

Body

Los Alamos County has earmarked funds beginning in Fiscal Year 2020 for Economic Development Initiatives if funds were available.  The funding was not expended and carried over each year.

The funding was increased as follows:

 

FY2020                      $1,500,000

FY2021                      $1,500,000

FY2022                      $1,545,000

FY2023                      $1,545,000

FY2024                      $1,545,000

FY2025                      $1,591,350

Total                            $9,226,250

 

This transfer will allow tracking through the separate Economic Development Fund.  There is no fiscal impact as these funds were previously budgeted and included in current and prior year budgets.

Alternatives

 Council could choose not to approve some or all of the attached budget adjustment.  The impact would be that related projects or programs may not occur or existing operations may be negatively impacted.

Fiscal and Staff Impact/Planned Item

The fiscal impact is detailed in Attachment A.
