Revised Proposed PGC Budget for 2014 dated February 12, 2014

The Feb. 7, 2014 proposed budget was reduced by $2, from $5,820 to $5,818, and further modified as follows:

1. Noted that the 2013 rollover balance of $102 in the Park Special Fund continues to be separately listed with that fund, and is not part of the PGC General Fund budget.  This led to the deletion of the $102 line item listed under the Parkwood Park Committee section.

2. Noted that $1,175 of the 2013 DHCA $1,500 donation is listed separately with the Park Special Fund, and deleted the $1,500 “Park Maintenance” line item from the Parkwood Park Committee. The balance of the DHCA donation is in Item No. 4 below.

3. Added a $150 “Host’s Appreciation” line item to the Administrative budget to provide the PGC Board with a mechanism for giving small “thank-you” acknowledgements to hosts of the annual parties. These extra amount was obtained from excess 2013 Membership Committee rollover balances.

4. Added $1,225 to the Grounds Maintenance line item listed under the Parkwood Park Committee in order to fully budget for the 2014 contract with Leitch Landscaping.  This amount will pay for 20 events (from March thru December) at $175 each.  The additional amount for this service was obtained as follows: (1) $823 from other draft Park Committee line items which were deleted (see item  No. 5 below); (2) $325 from the 2013 DHCA donation; (3) $74 from excess 2013 Membership Committee rollover balances; and (4) $3 from the Administrative miscellaneous line item.

5. Deleted $823 from the draft Park Committee budget: (1) $200 for a Spring cleanup which is considered to be unnecessary in 2014; and (2) $623 for water meter rental and water usage costs.  If a $600 water meter rental deposit is to be incurred during the 2014 planting season, the amount would be temporarily provided either from the PGC checking account balance or the PGC savings account funds, and the deposit would be expected to be returned by Dekalb County after the meter itself is returned.

6. Added $50 to the Membership Committee’s Fall 2014 Party budget line item – raising it from $250 to $300.  The extra amount was from a portion of the Fall 2013 Party line item rollover balance.

7. Deleted a total of $224 from the Membership Committee’s section: (1) $124 from the Fall 2013 Party line item rollover balance; and (2) $100 from the 2013 Neighbor Care line item rollover balance.
