RECREATION FUND (33) REPORT
FINANCIAL ACTIVITY
Background
The recreation fund is used to account for some of the recreation
programs' receipts and disbursements including some of the related
support costs. This fund is intended to track those programs which
are self - supporting from fees and charges received. The general
fund is used to support most of the fixed costs associated with
running recreation programs.
The combined expenditures budget from the general fund and the
recreation fund for recreation activities is $222,229 for fiscal
year 90/91. The recreation fund portion of this total budget is
$105,900. It was anticipated that the City would receive $150,000
in revenues during the year in Fund 33.
The recreation fund began with a fund balance carry over of
$17,153. Since the beginning of the year through the first week of
April, $51,729 in receipts have been collected. The total revenue
for the fund as of this report is $68,882.
Disbursements made to date, including warrants processed for this
meeting ($7,654), have been $70,471. The recreation fund therefore
has a negative balance of $1,589.
The Director of Community Services has indicated the deficit
balance is due to several factors including the carry over of Star
Club expenses from FY 89/90 to dispose of the building ($8,023);
unexpected electrical repairs to the Peach Hill ball field lights
(2 /3rds of the cost $4,256) ; a reduction in revenue from adult
sports because the school district disallowed City use of their
facilities for basketball and volleyball, and the overseeding of
the Peach Hill ball field, which resulted in one less softball
season during 90/91. In addition, less revenue was received from
contract classes than was projected.
799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark. California 93021 (805) 529 -6864
Expenditures remaining for the year include two youth dances which
will cost between $600 and $1,000 and the Cinco de Mayo
celebration.
The Parks and Recreation Commission met on April 8th and reviewed
the financial condition of the recreation fund. The Commission did
not make any recommendation regarding the financial position of the
fund. However, the Commission has requested a $12,000 budget for
Cinco de Mayo indicating that the event will cover the costs.
Budgeted funds remain in the general fund recreation line item for
Contractual Services. These funds were budgeted for a contract,
which was never executed, with the Moorpark Youth Activities
organization and for summer activities for teens which totaled
approximately $4,448 out of a budgeted $8,800. The remaining
budget balance in this line item is $9,352.
Recommendation
Authorize staff to charge youth dances and the Cinco de Mayo event
costs to the general fund recreation department line item for
contractual services (01.4.148.642) and direct that revenues
received from both activities be credited to the general fund to
offset the associated expenses. ,
