SUMMARY:
Public Works, Facilities and Parks (PWFP) is the lead for managing the County’s Capital Projects and Facilities Maintenance budgets. Annual Capital Project Funds and Facility budgets require a true-up to adjust appropriations for estimates made during budget development in March. The true-up does not increase a project’s overall budget (revenue or expenditures).
The Capital Projects, Fund 404, is used to account for financial resources and expenditures used for the construction of Board-approved capital facility projects over $1 million. PWFP identified sixteen (16) approved capital projects that rolled from FY 2023-24 and one (1) project that should be obligated to Fund 452, instead of Fund 404, in FY 2024-25. Three (3) of the sixteen (16) projects totaling $1,300,000 will be rolled into the FY 2025-26 budget and not require the full project allocation in FY 2024-25. Building Improvement and Replacement (Fund 478-BIR) Unrestricted Net Position is the original financing source for all these projects for a total obligation of $13,342,318.
In FY 2023-24, $950,000 was allocated from Fund 478-BIR for unscheduled maintenance projects in General Fund - Facility Services. At the end of FY 2023-24, there was $393,085 remaining with several projects in process not yet finalized by June 30, 2024. PWFP requests to use the entire $393,085 remaining allocation for eight (8) rollover projects. Building Improvement and Replacement Fund Unrestricted Net Position is the funding source for the unscheduled maintenance allocation.
In FY 2023-2024, a Capital Project for a new modular at the San Ardo Yard was expected to be completed by June 30, 2024 but due to shipping delays it is scheduled to be completed in FY 2024-25. Original project budget was $550,000 and $354,664 was spent as of June 30, 2024. The remaining allocation of $195,336 is financed from the Road Fund 002.
In FY 2023-2024, $1,000,000 was allocated from Fund 478-BIR for Lake Nacimiento Lodge Replacement. At the end of FY 2023-24, there was $584,725 remaining with the project still in process. PWFP is requesting to use the $584,725 remaining allocation to complete the project in FY 2024-25.
During the FY 2024-2025 Adopted Budget process Lake Nacimiento received $2,400,000 for Lodge Refurbishments from Fund 478-BIR to Fund 404 Capital Projects. This should have been allocated to Fund 452 Nacimiento Resort/Recreation, because Fund 452 is an Enterprise Fund with the ability to manage its own capital projects. PWFP is requesting to move the appropriations from Fund 404 to Fund 452 and the operating transfer to Fund 452 from Fund 478-BIR.
Attachment B provides an overview of the FY 2024-25 Adopted Budgets for Fund 404 Capital Projects and General Fund - Facility Services and the proposed appropriation modifications necessary to complete the projects.
