Explanation
Background: This legislation authorizes an increase in the amount of the imprest petty cash fund within the Department of Recreation and Parks operating fund to accommodate the reimbursement of miscellaneous expenses incurred by Maintenance and Operations sections. The current authorized balance for the imprest petty cash fund is $500.00 for Maintenance and Operations at the Alum Industrial Complex. This ordinance would allow for an additional $500.00 from the operating fund within the Department and Recreation and Parks, for an amount not to exceed $1,000.00 to bolster the imprest petty cash fund. The existing imprest petty cash operating fund is insufficient to insure the availability of cash to cover minor, unplanned expenses and reimbursements for the Department of Recreation Parks, Maintenance and Operations sections.
Benefits to the Public: Facilities, parkland, sports fields, and golf courses maintained by the city enhance the quality of life of our citizens. The use of petty cash will allow for the expedited maintenance and upkeep of these amenities.
Community Input Issues: The community has expressed a desire for accessible and well-maintained parkland, facilities, golf courses, and sports fields.
Area(s) Affected: Citywide (99)
Master Plan Relation: The increase in available petty cash and resulting purchases support the Department’s Master Plan by helping to ensure that facilities, golf courses, sports fields, and parks remain accessible, safe, updated, user friendly, and well maintained.
Fiscal Impact: The Department of Recreation and Parks imprest petty cash operating fund has sufficient appropriations and budget reservations in object class 05, Main Account 65045 to accommodate the increase in the petty cash fund.
