Staff was queried last meeting about my e-comment that using unreserved general funds equates to utilizing general CIP money. That comment was shorthand for the theory and preference that unreserved general funds at year end should automatically revert to general CIP, as was normal prior to 2004. That sensible process stimulated fiscal discipline in order to augment the budgeted general CIP funds determined by an insufficient formulary methods. I urge you to return to the former mindset.
