Upson Projects Financial Report LE 15, Upson County & City of Thomaston Joint Projects Financial Report The attached Revenue and Expenditure reports were run as of August 15, 2024. Most expenditures are not recognized! inr real time. Through August 15, we havel had 16 payroll periods out of26. AS good approximation: for most expenditures would be 62% to 67% of budget to be inar normal range. Some line items are above and most of this is caused from the County Finance staff creating new account numbers in ane efforttor make all ofc our accounts and naming conventions the same across None oft the departments are outside of budgete expectations in total. Alla are actually doing veryy well. Revenues besides property taxes are doing well against budget. The $72,171 In Intergovemmental. revenues for Fund 205 represent amounts billedt to Lamar, Pike, and Butts Counties forr meals.. AE budget adjustment needs tol ber made reclassify a portion out ofthe amount budgeted for Senior Center Meal Reimbursements. NOTE: Lamar County early in: 2024 decided to start providing thelr ownr meals." The reimbursements from Three Rivers are always delayed. We've only collected through May so Repalrs and maintenance fort the Archives are highert than budgeted amounts. Approximately $6,200 ofitis fort the flooding clean and another is for newl LED lighting adde for $3.200. Total expenditures look good as compared to budget. Ag quick repair oft the Archives roof was done in. July asv water was leaking was coming through to the ceiling tiles. Drone videos reveal some missing/broken: slate tiles. County staff have been int touch with Edifice. Repairs needed ando cost at this time are unknown. Exterior trim around the top of the buildingi is showing signs ofc deterioration. Staff are also working this issue, but we allf funds and departments. So, you may see amounts recorded where there Is no budget. far. would like tos gett ther roof situation figured outf first.
