HomeMy WebLinkAboutCST 42-11 Report To Executive Committee TAT- ~ ~ - 14 1 1 CKERIN Report Number: CST 42-11 Date: December 5, 2011 From: Gillis A. Paterson Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer Subject: 2012 Interim Spending Authority Recommendation: 1. That Report CST 42-11 from the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer be received; 2. That the 2012 Interim Operating Expenditures be approved at 50% of the prior year's budget, including adjustments as contained in Attachment 1, pending approval of the formal 2012 Current Budget by Council; and, 3. That the appropriate City of Pickering officials be authorized to take the necessary actions to give effect thereto. Executive Summary: Adoption of the interim current operating spending authority will provide funding authorization for the payment of salaries, overhead and such other accounts as may be necessary for the normal day-to-day operations of the City pending approval of the 2012 Current Budget. Financial Implications: Adoption of the interim current operating appropriations does not constitute approval of a formal budget but rather is required to provide funding authorization at the transitional stage. At the conclusion of the Budget process, all interim current operating appropriations are nullified and replaced with the appropriations as approved by Council. Sustainability Implications: Interim Spending Authority is required to maintain the operations of the City, pending approval of the 2012 Current Budget. Without this approval, the City is unable to continue its operations during this period. f ~R~ export CST 42-11 December 5, 2011 Subject: 2012 Interim Spending Authority Page 2 Background: Each year, pending approval by City Council of the annual Operating Budget, it is necessary to provide expenditure authority respecting the payment of accounts for the interim period from January 1 until the Budget is adopted by Council. Such authority is in the form of interim current operating appropriations to meet estimated expense requirements of the individual departments, agencies and boards. The 2011 Current Budget was considered by Council in April 2011. The 2012 Budget may prove to be as challenging as 2006 to 2011 due to the City's unique fiscal situation. Therefore, we are seeking approval to provide for interim spending authority for up to the first six months of 2012 or when Council approves the 2012 Budget, whichever occurs first. The Roads cost centre has been adjusted to reflect greater than six months of the annual budget due to the seasonal nature of this cost centre, and past spending patterns. This has been reflected on Attachment 1. With the requirements of the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) on tangible capital assets being effective since January 1, 2009, small capital items previously included under the Capital Budget have been gradually transferred to the Current Budget in the last two years. The 50% interim provision is sufficient to cover this change. Under the same PSAB requirements on tangible capital assets, the library materials have been deemed capital and included in the Capital Budget starting from 2010. In the library business, the publishing cycle demands that materials be purchased while they are "in print". As a result, certain materials must be purchased in a timely manner, and it is essential for the Library to continue purchasing materials throughout the year. On this basis, a greater than 50% of last's year library capital materials has been included in the interim appropriations and reflected on Attachment 1. A minor provision has been included for small capital expenditures from current funds. Specific capital projects proposed prior to the approval of the 2012 Capital Budget will require specific approval by Council.
