Explanation

Background:

This legislation requests transfer of funding between Object Level Ones within the existing appropriations of the Sewer Operating-Sanitary Fund from the Division of Sewerage and Drainage to the Department of Public Utilities and the Division of Operational Support.

Earlier this year appropriations were transferred from the Division of Sewerage and Drainage to the Department of Public Utilities and the Division of Operational Support. These transfers were due to the consolidation of the safety and fleet services within the Director's Office and the consolidation of customer, revenue and field services within the Division of Operational Support.

These transfers have left a surplus of funds within the Sewer Operating-Sanitary Fund for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage and a shortfall of funds for the Department of Public Utilities and the Division of Operational Support. Due to the fact that not enough money was transferred earlier in the year it is now necessary to transfer appropriations within the Sewer Operating-Sanitary Fund in order to cover the Department of Public Utilities and the Division of Operational Support personnel expenditures for the remainder of the year.

Fiscal Impact:

No increase in overall department funding is requested. Transfer of funds will occur within the existing appropriations of the divisions and the department. Funds will be transferred within the Sewer Operating-Sanitary Fund from Object Level One appropriations of the Division of Sewerage and Drainage to the Department of Public Utilities and the Division of Operational Support.
