Airport Gas Fund
FY 2019 Operating Position
The City has established three funds to receive revenuesfrom natural gas operations that do not
go to the Arlington Tomorrow Foundation (ATF). Now that the Foundation has reached its
capped corpus amount of $100 million, these three funds receive all lease bonus and royalty
revenues associated with natural gas operations.
The Airport Gas Fund receives gas revenues derived from drilling operations beneath the City's
airport. Accounting unit 910301 is available to account for one‐time expenditures from the fund,
but resources may also be transferred to other funds to more appropriately track and account
for expenditures. No expenditures that are in lieu of ongoing expenditures typically made from
the Airport's operating budget may be incurred without prior approval from the City Manager's
Office. Because the Airport Gas Fund is designated for specific purposes, expenditure amounts
in the fund are not appropriated on an annual basis as they would be in the City's operating
funds.
Periodically, fiscal conditions may necessitate transfers from the Airport Gas Fund to other funds
to cover specific one‐time costs. All proposed interfund transfers involving gas funds will require
approval by the City Manager's Office prior to implementation.
