Dianne Ray, Finance Director, explained that the Conservation Trust-Land Acquisition, Capital Projects, Sewer Utility, and Golf Course Funds are all projected to exceed the appropriations for 1999. The Conservation Trust-Land Acquisition exceeded the appropriation by $5,000 due to the miscellaneous costs associated with land purchases. The Capital Projects has funded the Dillon Road underpass rehabilitation for $65,000 and South Boulder Road trail at $61,000, which was not appropriated. The Sewer Utility expensed $400,000 on the plant expansion from unused 1998 funds. The Golf Course has incurred additional operating expenses over budget of $130,000 due to the increasing maintenance from additional rounds over budget, the reduction of inventory increasing the cost of goods sold, and additional personnel costs due to the cart path project. The gross revenue from the golf course is expected to offset the increase in expenditures.
