Authorize the County Auditor-Controller to replenish shortages presented to the Auditor in the Employment

FINA CIAI, IMPACT*
There will be no significant financial impact. The shortages identified for the EHSD accounts total $861.18 and
will be claimed as operating costs for federal, state revenues with a county General Fund cost of$172.24.
REASONS FOR RF OMMFNDA ONSIRACKGROU
The original purpose of the revolving fund was for emergency benefit distribution to same day eligible clients in
the General Assistance and AFDC programs. Prior to July 1999 the department had shortages in these revolving
funds that the department believed to be bank checking account costs that were not expensed in a timely manner.
To find the expenses would now cost more than the actual difference being requested. There have not been any
unidentified shortage changes since 1999. The accounts are now reconciled and any bank checking account
charges are being submitted for reimbursement.

The amount if not reimbursed will be carried as a liability until the accounts are closed.
