Fiscal Impact
The requested not-to-exceed amount of $125,000 for US Postal Service (USPS) expense is allocated among various operating department accounts as summarized in the agenda item attachment. Total 2021 budgeted postage expense is $129,250. Of this amount, we are estimating that $4,250 will be paid to other non-USPS sources such as Fedex and UPS. Thus, the remaining balance of $125,000 will be dedicated for payment to the US Postal Service.
Background
Postage is a non-discretionary expense budgeted annually in operating budget accounts. Approximately $125,000 of the $129,250 in budgeted postage expense is estimated to be paid directly to the US Postal Service.
