It is recommended that the Budget Committee support authorizing the Auditor-Controller to amend the FY 2017-18 adopted budget for County Service Area 75 Chualar, Fund 093, Appropriation Unit RMA088, increasing appropriations in the amount of $38,637 where Fund 093 unassigned fund balance is the financing source.

Special districts staff is currently developing the scope of work for this project which will be completed through the Job Order Contracting program.
