STAFF REPORT
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: OLIVER CHI, CITY MANAGER gl;.GeZ
DATE: NOVEMBER 20, 2007
SUBJECT: APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS FOR FOOTBALL HELMET
REPLACEMENT FOR THE ROSEMEAD REBELS YOUTH FOOTBALL
ASSOCIATION
SUMMARY
The Rosemead Rebels Youth Football Association ("The Rebels") submitted a request
to the City Council for $20,000 in financial assistance. At the July 17, 2007 Council
Meeting the City Council approved financial assistance in the amount of $8,356 in FY
2007-08 to be used for football helmet replacement and $8,800 for football helmet
replacement in FY2008-09, the request is not budgeted in either year. This report asks
City Council to appropriate $8,356 from the unreserved, undesignated General Fund's
fund balance and to direct staff to include $8,800 in the FY2008-09 preliminary budget
for football helmet replacement.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve an appropriation addition of $8,356 in
the Community Promotions, Community Contributions account (4200-6320-Fund01) for
football helmet replacement for The Rebels using unreserved, undesignated General
Fund's fund balance and direct staff to include another $8,800 in the FY2008-09
preliminary budget for football helmet replacement for The Rebels.
ANALYSIS
In accordance with sound budgeting practices an appropriation must be approved by
the City Council before spending can take place. Therefore, to fulfill Council's
commitment to contribute $8,356 to The Rebels, the budget must be amended by
appropriating $8,356 to the Community Contributions account and reducing the General
Fund's fund balance by the same amount.
