Presentation of the FY20 February General Fund Financial Dashboards

Key Issues:
The General Fund year-to-date (YTD) revenues through the month of February total approximately $59.8 million. This amount is greater than the YTD budget amount by approximately $2.2 million. The following is information about the large revenue sources and major variances with revenues:
