Home My WebLink AboutCS 39/01 ,- REPORT TO COUNCIL FROM: Gillis A. Paterson Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer DATE: November 19, 2001 REPORT NUMBER: CS 39-01 SUBJECT: 2002 Interim Spending Authority RECOMMENDATION: 1. It is recommended that Report CS 39-01 of the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer be received; 2. The 2002 Interim Operating Expenditures be approved at 50% of the prior years' budget including exceptions as contained in Attachment I, pending approval of the formal 2002 Current Budgets by Council; and, 3. The appropriate City of Pickering officials be authorized to take the necessary actions to give effect thereto. ORIGIN: - Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer AUTHORITY: The Municipal Act, RSO 1990, as amended FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Adoption of interim current operating appropriations does not constitute approval of a formal budget but rather is required to provide funding authorization for the payment of salaries and wages and such other accounts as may be necessary for normal day-to-day operations of the City. At the conclusion of the Budget process, all interim current operating appropriations are nullified and replaced with the detail appropriations as approved by Council. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Not applicable 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 Budgets are 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. Report to Council 39-01 Date: November 19, 2001 Subject: 2002 Interim Spending Authority Page 2 - The 2001 Current budget was considered by Council in May, 2001. Fiscal year 2002 may prove to be as challenging as 2000 and/or 2001 due mainly to Bill 140 and its impact on taxation. Therefore, we are seeking approval to provide for interim spending authority for up to the first six months of 2002 or when COUNCIL APPROVES THE 2002 BUDGET, whichever occurs first. At the conclusion ofthe budget process, all interim appropriations are nullified and replaced with the detail appropriations as approved by Council. Appropriate adjustments have been made in the departmental appropriations listed as Attachment I where the spending patterns indicates that something greater than 6/12's will be necessary for the first six months of 2002 such as snow clearing (Roads). The Interim Appropriations as listed are based upon the former administrative structure of the City and being the basis upon which the 2001 Budget was presented and approved. Any capital projects proposed prior to the approval of 2002 Capital budget will require specific approval by Council.
