Equipment replacement has supporting context in the finance memorandum.

The FY2024–25 amendment schedule assigns a $12,000 increase to this department’s retirement account (01-0701-5144), changing its budget from $13,000 to $25,000. This is its share of the $629,000 General Fund retirement increase, not a separately verified actual payment. Department pension amendment allocation · page 119.
The audited FY2025 discussion identifies the $629,000 retirement budget increase as an additional defined-benefit pension contribution. Audited pension amendment context · page 24.
The finance memo says Fire had to replace a drone after it malfunctioned and crashed. The attached schedule increases Fire Administration fixed assets by $18,000. The memo does not give an invoice amount or identify the complete composition of the actual fixed-assets row. Finance memorandum — May 7, 2025 · page 118.
The attached schedule shows the relevant proposed budget adjustments. Amounts in this schedule are appropriations, not invoice payments. Budget amendment detail · page 120.
Still unanswered: The budget allocation is documented; the actual pension postings are still needed to reconcile the annual retirement amounts and distinguish regular contributions from the additional contribution.
About these figuresWhat is included and what changed between reports.
Fire Administration only, not the entire Fire Department. Accounting categories do not establish unchanged staffing or responsibilities.
Amounts are shown as reported, without adjusting for inflation. A dash (“—”) means the source shows a dash or does not list a value; it does not necessarily mean zero. Related accounts are grouped for comparison, with available detail under each row.

How the years were matched
- The 2022-2023 column now uses the complete later FY2025-26 account breakdown. Its detail agrees with the previously displayed total; the earlier source column is archived.
- Each column is an ACTUAL fiscal-year column from a later annual budget; source labels, explicit zeros and printed dashes are preserved. Subtotals are excluded to avoid double counting.
- FY2022-23 PDF40 (printed38) supplies 2019-2020 and 2020-2021; FY2024-25 PDF39 (printed37) supplies 2021-2022 and 2022-2023; FY2025-26 PDF42 (printed34) supplies 2023-2024; FY2026-27 PDF43 (printed36) supplies 2024-2025. Later Administration is department 701, prefix 01-0701.
- FY2022-23 overlap totals both equal 192,443. Earlier Office Supplies 1,332 versus later Office Supplies 283 differs by 1,049, matching the new Coffee & Related Items amount. These stay separate: the offset does not prove the earlier combined row composition. All other mapped overlap groups agree.
- FY2023-24 overlap detail rows and total 215,495 agree between the FY2025-26 and FY2026-27 books.
- Salaries maps Regular and Special; Retirement maps Retirement and 401A. Longevity is separately confirmed. Fleet Maintenance maps Fleet Management with matching 6,000 overlap. No assertion of unchanged operational scope is made.
These changes do not establish changes in service quality or explain why spending changed. Budget amendments and meeting decisions have not been reconciled with this series.
