Human Services - Assigned Fund Balance Transfer and Related Budget Amendment Ben Rose, Human Services Director, presented the following information relating to an assigned fund balance transfer: For the fiscal year 2012 -2013, the Department requested $1,300,000.00 in funds for the Foster Care line item (00195675- 9462). These funds provide for foster care and board payments on behalf of children in the care of the Department. Through the budgetary process, $900,000.00 was allocated to this line item for these expenses, and $400,000.00 of Fund balance was assigned to cover any expenses above the budgeted amount for Foster Care should it be needed.
