PROPOSED TRANSFER OF FUNDS
Department: Office of the State's Attorney
Request: requesting approval by the Board of Commissioners to transfer $90,000 from and to the accounts listed below.
Reason: This transfer of funds, which represents less than one-tenth of one percent of our 2014 budget, should be sufficient to fulfill our obligations for the remainder of the fiscal year for two accounts with projected shortages. These accounts are: 250-217 Transportation for Specific Activities, where we have seen higher than anticipated costs for bringing in witnesses from out of state and for relocating witnesses for their protection; and 250-246 Micro Filming (photocopying) of Records, where we have experienced a significant increase in costs for obtaining medical records of adult and juvenile victims.
From Account(s): 250-355, $35,000.00; 250-445, $55,000.00
To Account(s): 250-217, $50,000.00; 250-246, $40,000.00
