PROPOSED TRANSFER OF FUNDS
Department: Juvenile Temporary Detention Center, Circuit Court of Cook County
Request: To approve transfer of funds request.
Reason: This request is to fulfill the personal allowance mandated by the Juvenile Temporary Detention Center’s Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) for correctional staff, Teamsters Local 700. The JTDC will purchase 553 identification badges, at $34 each.
From Account(s): 1440-215, $19,000.00
To Account(s): 1440-189, $19,000.00
Total Amount of Transfer: $19,000.00
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?
In August 2017, it became apparent that the JTDC’s account appropriation for personal allowances did not have sufficient funds.
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 JTDC examined the budget and re-prioritized funds that could be used to fund this CBA allowance.
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.
The JTDC does not believe there will be any other purchases, projects, programs or contracts that will be delayed or canceled as a result of this transfer.
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.
It is difficult to accurately project the volume of garbage disposal from year to year, so the JTDC proposed a small budget reserve to accommodate variances.
