In General Fund, bullet 3 - please capitalize "Strategic Initiatives."
In General Fund, Animal Shelter - why "modest" increase? Shouldn't we recalculate each year and charge accordingly, whatever that amount should be?
Response provided by Anna Miranda, Interim Director of Finance:
Budget Policy: I corrected “Strategic Initiatives” for proper capitalization. And changed “a modest increase in funding” to “continued funding” for the animal shelter partners. While we may only expect a modest increase in the budget, each partner’s share can change more significantly since the allocation is based on actual intake, which can vary more significantly from year to year.
