Committee reviews revenue lines and stresses tracking for opioid and child-safety funds
Summary
Committee members discussed how to separate cash-on-hand from budgeted revenue, reviewed income categories (taxes, franchise, fees, interest, reimbursements) and agreed that opioid and child-safety funds should be tracked as distinct, restricted accounts within the proposed template.
The Chair walked the committee through 'funds receivable' versus cash on hand and detailed income categories, explaining that the worksheet distinguishes current checking/savings/CD balances from revenues expected during the fiscal year: "This is what you're gonna get." Committee members questioned whether certain asset accounts were being presented as budget items; the Chair agreed to clarify labeling so asset/cash accounts are not mistaken for budget lines.
On restricted-purpose funds, a committee member asked whether opioid and child-safety funds would be kept separate; the Chair and Presenter agreed they should. The Presenter said the template can track those as separate objects and that the committee should treat the opioid funds as dedicated for services, not general spending.
