Title
Resolution Authorizing an Advance of $2,165,000 from the City's General Fund Unassigned Fund Balance to the Capital Projects Fund for School Maintenance Projects, Public Properties Maintenance Projects, and the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) Local Match
Purpose
PURPOSE/BACKGROUND:
City Council is being asked to advance a total sum of $2,165,000 from the General Fund Unassigned Fund Balance to provide funds to the Capital Projects Fund for certain Hampton City Schools, Public Properties Maintenance Projects and VDOT projects that require a local match as itemized in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan.

The current advance is recommended to allow the City to procure and perform necessary work in a timely manner to meet deadlines, begin preliminary work, and to work during the most opportune time.
Impact:
None.
Recommendation:
Rec
Approve the Resolution.
