Subject:       AUTHORIZATION TO ENCUMBER

 

                   Authorize the Chancellor or his designee to approve encumbrances of up to fifty percent (50%) of any appropriation and up to one hundred percent (100%) of designated appropriations in the 2003-2004 budget prior to the adoption of the Tentative Budget.

 

                   Background:  Board Rule 7603 authorizes the encumbrance of up to fifty percent (50%) of any appropriation and up to one hundred percent (100%) of designated appropriations following the adoption of the Tentative Budget.  Since the adoption of the 2003-2004 Tentative Budget is scheduled for June 25, 2003, this action enables the Chancellor, or designee, to review and approve encumbrances, such as continuing contract orders for summer school purchases, considered necessary to the on-going operations of the District during the period from May 28, 2003 through the date of the Tentative Budget adoption.
