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.
Budget and Management Services provided the identified accounts upon request and justification from the Agency. Per Budget Resolution Section 26, the Final Adopted Appropriation is set at 97% for budgetary units. The Budget and Management Services Director establishes quarterly allotments of non-personnel spending and has the discretion to transfer a portion of the holdback upon justification. There were no other available accounts to facilitate this transfer.
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.
The funding identified is a transfer of a portion of the holdback established at the beginning of the year. This holdback is an authorized allotment schedule adjustment per Section 26 of the Budget Resolution.
