RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE Appropriation and Revenue Adjustment #5025 authorizing adjustments to Federal, State and County expenditure and revenue budgets in the Adoptions Assistance and General Assistance program areas.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This action will adjust both the expenditure and revenue budgets to more accurately reflect an increase in Adoptions Assistance revenues and costs for FY 17/18. FY 17/18 Adoptions Assistance revenue is increasing by $579,252, however costs for the program are expected to increase by $626,444. The net increase of $47,192 in expenditures will be offset by a small projected decrease in General Assistance expenditures, which this appropriation adjustment will correct. The revenue increase is 80% Federal and 20% State revenue, and there is no additional net county cost.

BACKGROUND:

Children and Family Services Bureau received an increase in Adoptions Assistance revenue, however they are also currently projecting budget expenditure overages in Adoptions Assistance due to increased costs. The overage will be offset by a projected decrease of $47,192 in General Assistance expenditures. This requested appropriation adjustment will better align this fiscal year's expenditures and revenues for a balanced budget.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Appropriations will not be properly allocated.
