Each year, the County receives $30,000 in funding from Dominion Energy for emergency preparedness purposes, but we must claim the funding to receive it.  In FY 2017, the funding was budgeted and much of it was spent, but the claim was not made.  Because it was designated for Spotsylvania in FY 2017, Fire/Rescue and Finance staff has been in communications with Dominion Energy and are anticipating the $30,000 for both FY 2017 and FY 2018 to be paid to the County in FY 2018. 

The FY 2017 carryover purposely included a negative carryover balance for this emergency management program because the revenue had not been received in FY 2017.  A budget adjustment is now necessary to balance out that negative entry since it is anticipated that the funding for FY 2017 will come to us in FY 2018.
