DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
Brass supplies and hydrant repair parts for water operation (ZF442533) are much higher than were budgeted for FY2022-2023, resulting in a need to add funds to 552108 - Operating Supplies. Due to an insufficient supply of new vehicles for Fleet to procure, wastewater operations (ZF445535) has been continuing to use old vehicles, which require much more maintenance to keep them safe. This will require additional funds in object 546257. Postage rates have increased twice so far in Calendar Year 2023, resulting in more spending for mailing utilities invoices, as well as a higher-than-expected increase in new accounts in administration (ZF440536), requiring funds to be added to object 542201. This request is to move funds from reserves (599301) to the previously mentioned accounts. This is a one-time request.
