                                                                FUND 24


                                In accordance with SB 1087, a municipality must set up a separate PEG
               fund  to  collect  and  account  for  the  public,  educational  and  government  (PEG)  fee
               collected through cable providers.  The PEG fee is an additional 1% of gross revenue
               and can only be spent on capital items for the local access channel as described by
               federal law.  A separate fund was established in FY2017-2018 to comply with SB 1087.

               This fund is accounted for on the modified accrual basis of accounting.  Revenues are
               recorded when the liability is incurred.
