Detail.
Reappropriations
• A reappropriation of $3.8 million to the General Jose Francisco Morazan Quesada Park
Enhancements capital project (40-B263501), funded by reductions from the following
projects:
o Triangle Park Enhancements (40-B213508): -$450,000
o Simpson Park General Enhancements (40-B223502): -$675,000

The Commission further clarified the disposition of a prior capital allocation as follows:
• On July 24, 2025, pursuant to Resolution R-25-0305, the City Commission approved a
midyear budget allocation of $10,000,000 in General Fund revenues for Districts 2, 3, 4,
and 5.
• Said allocation was referenced as a "General Fund Contribution to Capital for
improvements or acquisition of public parks."
• It is hereby clarified that, because these funds were appropriated from the General Fund
into the Capital Budget, they are not restricted solely to park improvements and may be
applied to any capital project as directed by the City Commission.

The above adjustment is budget -neutral and does not affect the overall funded amount or the total
number of projects in the Proposed Capital Plan. The clarification of the prior midyear allocation
does not change the funding amount but broadens the eligible uses of the $10,000,000 previously
appropriated.
