AGENDA SECTION:


CONSENT AGENDA

 
BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:


There was a significant increase in the utilization of consultant services due to the resignation of three planners and one employee being on extended leave. Additionally, the Department experienced a substantial increase in permit activity and development applications, resulting in a higher workload. Because of the corresponding increase in revenues, this budget amendment can be funded without the use of General Fund balance. Several outstanding consultant invoices are currently awaiting budgetary approval for payment.

FISCAL IMPACT:


This amendment of $655,400 will allow budgetary expenditure authorization to pay outstanding invoices to the various vendors that have been assisting the Planning Department in FY 25-26.  The increase in appropriations and adjustments will not require the use of fund balance.

 
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:


1. Adopt FY 25/26 Budget Amendment Resolution in the amount of $655,400.00 for Planning and Zoning Budget Unit increasing appropriations and reducing Public Service Retirement in Salary and Benefits to offset increasing line-item budgets in Service and Supplies retroactive to June 30, 2026; and
