54. TRANSFER OF REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE AUTHORITY FOR ANIMAL CARE AND CONTROL Pursuant to A.R.S. 42-17106(B), approve the transfer of revenue and expenditure authority between Non-Departmental (470), Non-Departmental Grants Fund (249) and the Animal Care and Control Department (790) Animal Care and Control License/Shelter Fund (572). This increase is due to the repairs required on the West Shelter’s Air Conditioning system as well as an increase in revenue and expenditures due to high capacity of animals and increased licensing activity. This action will require a revenue and expenditure appropriation adjustment decreasing the FY 2008-09 Non-Departmental (470), Non-Departmental Grants Fund (249), Operating (0000) by $2,079,345 and increasing the FY 2008-09 Animal Care and Control Department (790) Animal Care and Control License/Shelter Fund (572) Operating (0000) by $2,079,345. This adjustment will result in a County-wide net financial impact of zero and will allow the Animal Care and Control Department to have sufficient budget authority to meet its expenditure commitments. Also, approve a revenue and expenditure budget increase to the Animal Care and Control (790) Animal Care and Control Donation Fund (573) Operating (0000) in the amount of $1,227,899. This adjustment will allow the Animal Care and Control Department to have sufficient budget authority to meet its expenditure commitments from the donations it has received this fiscal year. Donation revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore, expenditure of the funds is not prohibited by the budget law. The approval of this action requested does not alter the budget constraining the expenditures of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. Also, approve a revenue and expenditure budget increase to the Animal Care and Control (790) Animal Care and Control Donation Fund (574) Operating (0000) in the amount of $221,327. This adjustment will allow the Animal Care and Control Department to have sufficient budget authority to meet its expenditure commitments from the intergovernmental agreements it has received this fiscal year. Intergovernmental revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore, expenditure of the funds is not prohibited by the budget law. The approval of this action requested does not alter the budget constraining the expenditures of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. (C-79-09-102-2-00)
