Official Text

To the Honorable City Council:

 

I respectfully request your approval to transfer $8,000 within the City Council’s budget, from the Professional and Technical Services Account (0111252-530000) to the Salaries and Wages Temporary Account (0111251-512000).

 

This transfer is required to continue funding the two temporary part-time positions that your Honorable body hired to develop, with significant public input, municipal legislative language related to Police Civilian Oversight in the City. The project has continued beyond the projected end date, so additional funding is necessary.

 

My staff will be available to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

 

Respectfully Submitted,

Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
