Technical Amendment <br />2. On August 18, 2009, the Board of County Commissioners approved a budget <br />amendment item that accepted a $4,000 donation for the University Mall Walk Program <br />on behalf of the Department on Aging. The amendment inaccurately labeled these <br />proceeds as belonging to the General Fund rather than a separate grant fund for the <br />Senior Citizen Wellness Program. This technical amendment reallocates the donation <br />from the General Fund to the appropriate grant project fund.
