Finance Director Gillespie stated that the Downtown Plaza project was scheduled for completion by June 30, 2005 but, due to construction delays, the project was not completed until after the beginning of our current fiscal year. As a result, the beginning fund balance is $42,228 more than the adopted budget amount and staff is recommending that this fund balance increase be appropriated to Debt Service ($40,000) and Operating Contingency ($2,228) so that the construction costs incurred in this fiscal year can be paid to the contractor. He also stated that the Urban Renewal fund can only pay for debt, therefore, the actual expense will be paid through the City's General CIP fund and the Urban Renewal Fund will reimburse the General CIP fund, No one in the audience spoke either for or against the proposed supplemental budget.
