13. MID YEAR BUDGET REVIEW
The Town has many sources and uses of funds, but this report only addresses two of them: the two major operating funds, the General Fund and the Transportation Fund. The remaining Special Revenue and Maintenance District funds' revenues and expenditures are on track with their budgets and consistent with prior year activity.
Most years, no adjustments are necessary to the budget. Rather, variances between expected and actual revenues and expenses give us opportunities to analyze the causes and effects. Staff is not recommending any changes to the existing budget.
RECOMMENDATION
Receive report, discuss with Staff, and file the 2022-23 Mid-year budget review.
PUBLIC COMMENT: None
