These transfers move funds to the appropriate accounts and do not require additional appropriations.

Committee:

Not applicable.

Recommended Action:

Attachment


In July 1995 AQMD Administrative Policy and Procedures No. 20, Fixed Assets, was revised. Fixed assets are now generally defined as assets which have a life of at least three years and a significant value of at least $1,500. The Fiscal Year 1995-96 budget adopted in May 1995 includes several items that no longer meet the fixed asset definition. As a result of the policy revision, the funds for budgeted fixed asset items #4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, 20, 41, 46, 47, 55, 56, and 60 should be moved from the Fixed Asset account (account #900) to the Office Expense account (account #815) and the budgeted funds for fixed asset items #29 and 31 should be moved to the Lab Supplies account (account #805).

Three Governing Board member assistants have been identified as contract AQMD employees. Funds budgeted for their services need to be moved from the Professional and Special Services account to the Salary account.

Technical Support Services requests that $1,000 be transferred from their Overtime account to their Film account for film used for publicity photos, AQMD publications, and employee awards and events.
