| There are three ways in which to change appropriations after the Budget
is adopted.
1. A transfer of appropriations decreases an appropriation and increases
another. This is the simplest budget change allowed under Oregon Budget law.
This does not increase the overall budget. This is approved by a City council
resolution.
2. A supplemental budget of less than 10 percent of total appropriations
within an individual fund follows a process similar to the transfer of
appropriations.
3. A supplemental budget in excess of 10 percent of total appropriations
requires a longer process. This process includes a notice in the paper and
a public hearing.
The second type of budget change is necessary and has been duly advertised
and noticed. Attached is a resolution for your approval. The recommended
changes in the budget are explained after each request.
Attached is the notice published in the local paper on February 11, 2004. |
