RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation Concerning Supplemental Budget Amendment #134 - Stephan Hall, Budget Manager, Management and Budget Services

That the Board adopt the Resolution approving Supplemental Budget Amendment #134, Library Fund (113), in the amount of $10,260, to recognize Grant proceeds from the Panhandle Library Access Network, and to appropriate these funds to be used to purchase HP Sprout computers for West Florida Public Library to provide digital literary skills for adults and children. This Grant requires a 10% match from the County, and matching funds will be from the Library's Information Systems Cost Center (Fund 113).

BACKGROUND:

On January 7, 2016, Escambia County BCC approved the grant agreement for the Panhandle Library Access Network Innovation Grant. These funds will be used to purchase HP Sprout blended reality computers with 3D capture stages for West Florida Public Library. These computers will help develop digital literacy skills in a non-traditional, but intuitive method. This will allow our community to be better prepared for the future.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

This amendment will increase Fund 113 by $10,260 and requires a 10% match in the amount of $1,140. Matching funds will be from the Library's Information Systems cost center (Fund 113).
