Vision Principle: Efficient Service Delivery. Background:  On May 10, 2016 City Council adopted Ordinance Number 2016-34, which provided for the appropriation of revenue sources to fund categories for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2016 and ending June 30, 3017.  Subsequent to this adoption, review by the BHS department has outlined State and fee revenue sources that will be utilized for services instead of using the City’s fund balance. Discussion:  This ordinance makes a technical bookkeeping correction to subsection 2.C (Behavioral Healthcare Services Fund Revenue) of City Ordinance 2016-34. It does not modify the purpose of Ordinance 2016-34, which was to authorize the expenditure of $1,073,645 to meet the City’s state law obligation to fund BHS services. Financial Impact  None. Recommended Action:  Adoption of the ordinance. Vision Principle: Efficient Service Delivery. Next Steps Following Council Action:  The finance department will complete the necessary budget adjustments.
