The Kenai Peninsula Borough's finance department introduced an ordinance requesting supplemental funds to cover a budgeting software project after proposals returned higher than the department's initial estimate.

Sarah Dennis, speaking for the finance department, told the Finance Committee that the department initially budgeted $60,000 for the project and that "All of our proposals came in."
