Title
Ordinance No. 22-90 Annual Appropriation Ordinance Adopting the Annual Budget and Appropriating Funds for the Several Purposes Named in Said Budget for the Year Ending December 31, 2023

Presenter:
Charae McDaniel, Chief Financial Officer

Body
Summary:
The attached Ordinance adopts the budgets and appropriates all funds and reflects administrative changes as line items. There are no City Council line item changes.

At the 2023 Budget Markup Session on November 14, 2022, City Council discussed changes to the 2023 budget released on October 3, 2022.

Rebudgeted funds typically result from the under expenditure of budgets or from the receipt of revenue which is greater than the budgeted amount in the prior year.
As a result of revenue exceeding budget and expenditure savings in 2022, there will be $11,800,461 available to rebudget in the General Fund in 2023.

The proposed changes to the 2023 Budget are listed in attachments as follows:
? General Fund - Attachment A
? Lodgers and Auto Rental Tax Fund - Attachment B
