Following are summaries of major revenue impacts due to COVID-19: General Fund As of July 2021, actual revenue collected is $5,670,228 with an estimated $1.1M to be collected for the months of August and September. The fiscal year year-end revenue position is expected to total $6.8M for the General Fund. This is a net decrease of approximately $7.7M when comparing the budgeted Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 revenue of $14.5M. The variance is primarily the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and related modified operations. • Estimated decrease in Service Fees ($2.5M • Estimated decrease in PARD Entry Fees ($2.4M ) - ACL related funding will not be received in FY 2021. ) - Pool entry fee revenue has not been collected fiscal year to date (YTD) through June. The FY 2021 estimate assumes that, even with modified operating hours, revenue will begin to be collected during the summer. • Estimated decrease in PARD Registration ($2.8M ) - Minimal registration fees have been collected YTD through July. The FY 2021 estimate assumes that summer programming will be offered at a modified capacity starting in late June, and thus revenue collection will begin to be collected during the summer.
