Resolution to Correct the Adopted Ann Arbor City Budget for Fiscal Year 2024 by Increasing the FY 2024 Major Street Fund Approved Revenue Budget by Appropriating $2,657,371.00 from the Major Street Unobligated Fund Balance (8 Votes Required)
Memorandum
On May 15, 2023, City Council approved the FY 2024 Ann Arbor City Budget and Related Property Tax Millage Rates via Resolution #R-23-160. Due to a clerical error the planned use of fund balance for capital improvements was not programmed; therefore, the Major Street Fund was out of balance, the expense budget exceeded the budgeted revenue.
Per the Michigan Uniform Budgeting and Accounting Act, PSA 2 of 1968 the City must adopt a balanced budget by fund. In order to be in compliance, the Major Street Fund revenue budget must be amended to be increased by $2,657,371.00.
Budget Fiscal Impact: Funding is available in the Major Street Fund Unobligated Fund Balance. Increasing the revenue budget by $2,657,371 will present a balanced budget
