$5.42M Public Safety Funding Update
This is the opening paragraph of the Executive Summary
” As of January 15, 2025, $150,777.70 remains available from the original appropriation of $5,420,000. The administration has spent or encumbered $3,982,222.30, with an additional $1,287,000 in pending expenses. A detailed summary of the expensed/encumbered funds as well as the pending expenses appears below.”
I think it is a helpful report. It would be great if the memo had a schedule attached that clearly shows how much has been encumbered and for which purposes. The City manager combined the figures for “spent” and “encumbered.” But in order to see how well the city is delivering on the $5.42 million, the report should also combine the “remains available” figure and the “encumbrances.” Those are the funds that actually remain unspent.
