body
DEPARTMENT: Finance
ORIGINATOR: Jim Woodard
EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION: Approve
PURPOSE: Increase the Revenue Stabilization reserve in the 2021 Budget Year
BACKGROUND: On March 22, 2009, Snohomish County Council authorized the creation of the General Fund Revenue Stabilization Fund to identify, reserve, and accumulate unexpended general fund revenues in order to mitigate impacts of future general fund revenue shortfalls and to provide revenue for emergency or other exigent circumstances. Emergency Ordinance No. 20-034 dated June 10, 2020 transferred the entire balance of $4,370,870 in order to respond to the world-wide COVID-19 pandemic and economic crisis. Amended Ordinance 20-075 approved the 2021 Adopted Budget which reestablished a reserve of $5,516,060 to the Revenue Stabilization fund. Motion 21-088 approved 3/17/2021 increased the reserve by $5,151,821 with a transfer within General Fund 002, from Fund Balance to Revenue Stabilization, with no net change to the total 2021 budget. This action seeks to add an additional $1,500,000 to the reserve using the same mechanism.
