PROPOSED TRANSFER OF FUNDS
Department: Cook County Sheriff’s Office
Request: Fund Transfer
Reason: The transfer is needed to pay for the cost of the food services contract through the end of the year.
From Account(s): 11100.1239.12975.501010 (Sal/Wag of Regular Employees) - $2,000,000.00
To Account(s): 11100.1239.16875.520210 (Food Services) - $2,000,000.00
Total Amount of Transfer: $2,000,000.00
On what date did it become apparent that the receiving account would require an infusion of funds in order to meet current obligations? What was the balance in the account on that date, and what was the balance 30 days prior to that date?
The CCSO became aware of the need to infuse funds on 9/2/2025. The balance for the Food Services account was $1,968,067. The balance of the Food Services account was $3,228,297.07 thirty days before.
How was the account used for the source of transferred funds identified? List any other accounts that were also considered (but not used) as the source of the transferred funds.
The DOC’s Sal/Wag of Regular Employees account was identified because it is projecting to have a surplus at fiscal yearend. This was the only account considered.
Identify any projects, purchases, programs, contracts, or other obligations that will be deferred, delayed, or canceled as a result of the reduction in available spending authority that will result in the account that funds are transferred from.
None.
If the answer to the above question is “none” then please explain why this account was originally budgeted in a manner that caused an unobligated surplus to develop at this point in the fiscal year.
All positions in the DOC’s Sal/Wag of Regular Employees account are funded for a full fiscal year. The surplus in this account was created as the positions were not completely filled throughout the fiscal year.
