Title
Parks, a Division of the Chief Administrative Office, recommending the Board adopt and authorize the Chair to sign Resolution 064-2025, increasing the imprest cash account balance for the Parks Division by $200, bringing the total from $200 to $400.
FUNDING: General Fund.
Body
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
The Parks Division receives payments for parking and usage fees at Henningsen Lotus Park, the Parks office in Placerville, and the Chief Administrative Office in Placerville. Currently, the Division accepts payments via currency, check, or credit card payments.
Imprest cash funds are used by the Division to make change for customers paying in cash. Due to an increase in customer volume and inflationary pressures, the current imprest cash account does not meet the Division’s needs. It has been determined that an increase of $200 for the imprest cash account is needed to establish a $400 fund balance.
ALTERNATIVES
The Board could choose not to increase the Parks Division’s imprest cash fund balance, which could impact staff’s ability to provide effective customer service.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Sufficient funding is available in the Parks Division’s Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget to cover the $200 increase. The $400 fund will not be depleted, as the imprest account is used solely for making change for cash transactions.
