Background and Discussion:
The Office of Management and Budget, in collaboration with county departments and agencies, prepared quarterly projections based on actual revenue and expenses through the first quarter of the fiscal year. Based on the Q3 projections, OMB proposes the following supplemental budget appropriations:
* $18.8M for District Courts Appointed Attorney Fees
* $10.2M for County Courts Appointed Attorney Fees
Expected Impact:
The proposed supplemental appropriations will allow departments to meet their fiscal needs. The $29M will come out of general fund unbudgeted reserves.

Alternative Options:
Leave department funding at current levels, resulting in operating deficits.
