Official Text

To the Honorable City Council:

I respectfully request your approval for the transfer $85,000 in the Department of Public Works , from the Buildings Account (0140751) to the Grounds Account (0140951), to cover Personnel Services Costs through the end of FY22.  The specific line item to transfer from the Buildings Department is Overtime - Labor 51300.

This transfer is warranted by an over-spending in the Grounds Division due to a shortage of staff resulting in extra overtime being charged to this Org Code and a delay of transfer of employee off of the Grounds Division to the Buildings Division.  This transfer was approved in 9/2021; however, it was effective on 4/4/2022

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

Respectfully Submitted,

Katjana Ballantyne, Mayor
