The operating and capital budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them. Public hearings are conducted to obtain community comments. Prior to July 1, the City legally adopts its annual budget for all funds through passage of a resolution. The resolution authorizes fund appropriations as current annual departmental requirements, debt service, capital outlay, interfund transfers, interfund loans, and special payments. Expenditures cannot legally exceed appropriations at these control levels. Appropriations which have not been spent at year-end lapse, although an amending resolution passed in the subsequent year specifically provides for the reappropriation of prior-year lapsed encumbrances. Unexpected additional resources or appropriations may be added to the budget through the use of a supplemental budget. A supplemental budget requires hearings before the public, publications in newspapers, and approval by the City Council. Original and supplemental budgets may be modified by the use of appropriation transfers between the levels of control. Such transfers require approval by passage of a Council resolution authorizing the transfer. All budget amendments are subject to the limitations put forth in the Oregon Revised Statutes Chapters 294.305 through 294.565. Supplemental appropriations, permitted by Oregon Budget Law, were authorized by the City Council during the fiscal year. The net effect of amending resolutions passed during the fiscal year was an appropriation increase of $22,001,315. (B) Deficit Net Position The Ambulance Transport Enterprise Fund and the Professional Services Internal Service Fund have a deficit net position of $6,246,148 and $3,974,250, respectively. The deficit net position is the result of the recognition of each fund’s proportionate share of the City’s net pension and OPEB liabilities. 51 December 10, 2018, Meeting - Item 2D
