7.1.E. - Page 2 <br /> As can be seen in the attached exhibits, the proposed General Fund net expenditure is <br /> driven primarily by: Planning Division staff and consultants needed to review the high <br /> volume of development projects and undertake special planning studies; the need for a <br /> temporary over-hire of police officers that begins recruitment in advance of anticipated <br /> vacancies in order to maintain staffing levels; and additional funds for special counsel <br /> services to meet increased demand for legal support related to the high levels of <br /> planning activity in the City and a number of litigation matters. <br /> ALTERNATIVES <br /> Council could elect not to approve any or all of these recommended adjustments. The <br /> impacts would vary depending upon the circumstances surrounding each specific item. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> The net change in fund balance for each fund is shown in the Analysis Section of this <br /> report. Sufficient resources are available within the unassigned fund balance in the <br /> respective funds or will be made available through grants or increased revenues that <br /> will be received this fiscal year to support these recommended appropriations. <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW <br /> This activity is not a project under CEQA as defined in CEQA Guidelines, section <br /> 15378, because it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or foreseeable physical <br /> change in the environment. <br /> i <br /> TONI SALDOU <br /> ACCOUNTANT <br /> AUDREY SEYMOUR RAMBERG <br /> INTERIM FINANCE DIRECTOR <br /> ROBERT B.
