Many of these <br />were on outstanding purchase orders, and in accordance <br />with the 1990 -91 budget ordinance, were reappropriated to <br />the 1990 -91 budget. Funds for other planned expenditures <br />that were not encumbered have been set aside as a reserved <br />portion of fund balance. In order to carry these items <br />forward and authorize their expenditure in 1990 -91, it is <br />necessary for the Board to approve the attached technical <br />amendment. A portion of these funds, $2,746, are related <br />to the Aging Department's Transportation Assistance <br />program which is no longer administered through the <br />General Fund; instead it is accounted for in a grant <br />project ordinance. The attached grant project ordinance <br />will increase the appropriated grant funds by this amount <br />and authorize program expenditures through June 30, 1991. <br />(2) The Economic Development Commission has received <br />$6,000 in donations from Duke Power. The attached budget <br />amendment will appropriate these funds for use in <br />printing marketing materials for implementation of a <br />portion of the EDC Strategic Plan. <br />(3) The Recreation and Parks Department has received a <br />total of $1,576 in donations for use in supporting the <br />Senior Games program. The attached budget amendment will <br />appropriate these funds to help support the next Senior <br />Games. <br />
