Background and Analysis:
The background and analysis have not changed from first to second reading.
To change the budget the Council must approve a new ordinance amending the budget. Generally, budgetary amendments are made quarterly. On occasion a budget change needs to be made between the quarterly updates and a separate ordinance will come before the Council. These ordinances do not officially amend the budget ordinance, but do provide authorization to expend funds. The attached ordinance reflects ordinances which may have been adopted relating to the budget since the last quarterly update, and other proposed changes to the budget.
No ordinances were passed since the adoption of the Special Funds Budget related to the Special Funds Budget.
