| | | | | | | | RECOMMENDATION
Approve a budget amendment increasing appropriations by $180,000 and increasing revenue by $200,000 in the Air Quality Management District budget for the purpose of recognizing increased funding received for the Woodstove Replacement Program. |
| | | | | | | | DISCUSSION
On May 23, 2018 the Shasta County Air Quality Management District entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with CAPCOA to replace uncertified and inefficient woodstoves with cleaner burning devices and was allocated $125,000 to implement the Program through June 2020. Due to the early success of the program, the District has issued enough woodstove replacement vouchers to exhaust the initial allocation of $125,000, and on June 26, 2018 the Shasta County Air Quality Management District adopted a resolution to accept additional funds, in the amount of $75,000, by amendment to the MOU. Total funding of $200,000.
Of the $200,000 Revenue; $20,000 is for the District oversight and administration of the program and $180,000 is for the payment for woodstove replacements. Due to the timing of when these funds were made available to the District, they were not included in the FY 2018/19 budget process.
|
| | | | | | | | ALTERNATIVES
The Board may choose not to approve this budget amendment, but that is not recommended because the Districts’ budget will be over-budget in the affected object code and the woodstove replacement program would stop. |
| | | | | | | | OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT
This recommendation has been reviewed by the County Auditors’ Office and the County Administrative Office
|
| | | | | | | | FINANCING
This budget amendment will not have a negative impact on the budget. Partial funds ($112,500) for this program have already been received and are held in the Air District Unearned Account.
