However, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected <br /> these revenue types in several ways that has led the District to forecast decreases. As a result, the <br /> District is holding all other local revenue sources at FY 2020-21 levels, with the exception of <br /> interest revenues. Our estimates indicate a revenue decrease of$25,000 for next year as a direct <br /> result of the reduction in interest rates on the District's funds held in the NC State Treasurer's <br /> Short-Term Investment Fund(STIF). <br /> Fund Balance Appropriated <br /> We currently estimate our fiscal year end unassigned fund balance at$15.5 million. This is <br /> approximately $11 million above our minimum target of 5.5% or$4.5 million. Although the <br /> District historically has assigned$1 million to balance the current local operating budget, this <br /> request is presented without a fund balance appropriation. To date, the District has appropriated <br /> a total of$4.8 million in fund balance in its amended FY 2020-21 local operating budget <br /> primarily to help address the challenges that surfaced throughout the pandemic and assist with <br /> the reopening of schools. <br /> 00 <br /> Chapel Hill—Carrboro City Schools—FY 2021-22 Recommended Budget empower <br /> inspire <br />
