Such information is useful in assessing the Agency's financing requirements. <br />In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available <br />for spending at the end of the fiscal year. <br />As of the end of the current fiscal year, the Agency's governmental funds reported combined ending fund <br />balances of $13,382,637. Approximately $2% of this total amount ($10,976,476) constitutes unreserved fund <br />balance, which is available for spending at the Agency's discretion. The remainder of fund balance ($2,406,161) <br />is reserved to indicate that it is not available for new spending because it has already been committed for assets <br />held for resale. <br />The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the Agency. At the end of the current fiscal year, the total fund <br />balance was $2,608,940, of which $2,070,011 is unreserved. As a measure of the General Fund's liquidity, it <br />may be useful to compare total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unreserved fund balance is 2.3 times <br />larger than total General Fund expenditures. <br />General Fund Budgetary Highlights <br />The difference between the original budget and the final amended budget was an increase of $605,962. This <br />increase was funded by unspent resources from the prior year and current year resources. <br />Capital Assets <br />Capital assets.
