Twentynine Palms City Council to consider excess funds


Tonight, the Twentynine Palms City Council faces a money-focused agenda, starting with an audit report on Federal Awards for Fiscal Year 2023-2024. During that time, the city spent over $4.8M in federal funds, so an independent audit is required.


The council will also hear mid-year budget updates on the General Fund, Capital Projects Funds and Special Funds for the same fiscal time period. City staff will recommend that funding leftover from closed projects be reallocated to projects with unfunded balances, such as IT equipment for the Luckie Park Pool, Luckie Park ballfield light poles, and project management costs for the Hatch/Sullivan bike path.


The funding reviews continue as the council will focus on Project Phoenix Funds and the Enterprise Fund. The city has a remaining balance over $354K from Project Phoenix which has not yet been designated for use.


Finally, the council will address Community Events Grants, specifically, requests for $10K for the 29 Palms Art Gallery Gala Dinner and $5K for ongoing programs at Sky’s the Limit Observatory & Nature Center.


The meeting takes place on Tuesday, February 27, at 6:00 p.m. at City Hall, 6136 Adobe Road. It can be livestreamed or viewed on-demand via the city’s website, www.29palms.org.
