RESOLUTION NO. 24-090
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VICTORVILLE AMENDING THE ANNUAL BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2024 -2025;
APPROVING AN ADDITIONAL APPROPRIATION OF GENERAL FUND
FUNDS TO INCREASE THE BUDGET FOR ENGINEERING CONTRACT
SERVICES; AND SUSPENDING COUNCIL POLICY CP-97-3
WHEREAS, the City Manager of the City of Victorville did heretofore submit to the City Council an estimate of the expen ditures and revenues of the City departments and offices, together with a proposed budget for the fiscal year 2024/25; and
WHEREAS, copies of said budget were prepared and distributed to the City Council, approved by the City Council prior to June 30, 2024, and have been available for the inspection by the public in the office of the City Clerk of the City of Victorville; and
WHERAS, at the April 2, 2024, City Council meeting, direction was provided to staff to work toward long- term sustainability of the underfunded Landscape Maintenance Assessment Districts 1-4 (LMADs 1-4) without the use of Measure P funds; and
WHERAS, after review of the legal requirements for funding a consultant that specializes in the Proposition 218 balloting process for assessment districts formed under the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, assessment district funds can only be used if the ballot measure is successful; and
WHEREAS, given the direction not to use Measure P funds and the inability to appropriate assessment district funds prior to a successful ballot measure, it was determined the only allowable funding source is the General Fund; and
WHEREAS, in order to use General Fund monies, Council Policy CP-97-3 must be suspended due to the restriction the policy places on the use of General Fund dollars for assessment district expenses; and
WHEREAS, this information became available after preparation and approval of the fiscal year 2024/25 budget; therefore, it is recommended that the City Council amend the budget for the additional expenditures; and
WHEREAS, the City Manager or his designee will provide all necessary justification for the budget amendment as an attachment to this resolution or in the associated City Council agenda report.
