As Council reviews and considers various budget balancing recommendations, both for 2009-10 <br />and subsequent years, staff will report the impact of any loan repayments on both the Reserved <br />and Unreserved components of the fund balance of the General Fund. <br />In closing, it may be useful to note that based on the preliminary close for 2008-09 total fund <br />balance for the General Fund is projected at approximately $29.7 million. Unfortunately, from a <br />budget standpoint, $14.6 million is reserved ($14 million for advances to other funds, $600,000 <br />for encumbrances). This leaves a balance of $15.1 million for Council designated use. Council <br />has further indicated that the Major Emergency Reserve of $5.0 million is not available for <br />budget balancing purposes. This leaves $10.1 million available for Council designation, <br />including balancing future budgets and is the amount reported by staff in the Five Year Budget <br />Forecast. <br />
