FY 2004 BUDGET TRANSFERS

 

The MST Board approved FY 2004 budget transfers. A budget transfer is necessary to recognize operating cost savings for MST RIDES for the fiscal year. In addition, there is a need to increase the Fixed-Route BUS operating budget for insurance reserves and transfer LTF funding to the Fixed-Route BUS capital budget. A reduction in the Fixed-Route BUS capital budget is necessary to adjust for funding reallocations of California STIP funds to FY 2006 and reduced Federal CMAQ and Earmark funds. Additional federal funds have been added to the MST RIDES capital budget.
