BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Following the adoption of the 2024-25 budget, the Purchasing Department - Printing Services division (Printing Services) experienced an unanticipated increase in workload, resulting in higher-than-projected revenue and corresponding expenditures. To align budget appropriations with actual operational needs, Printing Services is requesting to increase appropriation by $400,000 in Services and Supplies for General Office Expense, funded with increased revenue of $200,000 from Other Services, and offset by a decrease of $200,000 from anticipated savings in Salaries and Benefits, for a total net increase to Requirements of $200,000.
