City Council Announcements

April 4, 2006

A. Information Needed by Council Staff

 

1. City Council Office Budget: Each year the Council establishes an office budget for the next year to be included in the Mayor’s citywide recommended budget. The attached schedule shows: (1) the adopted Council Office budget for fiscal year 2005-06, (2) estimated expenditures through June 30, 2006, (3) a suggested budget for fiscal year 2006-07, and (4) any differences in line-item amounts between the suggested budget and the current-year adopted budget. The Council Chair and Vice Chair reviewed this suggested budget, which, in total, is the same as the current-year adopted budget (before any potential salary adjustments). During the Council’s review of the Mayor’s recommended budget, the Council may adjust the proposed budget of any department including the Council Office. Would the Council like to hold a separate briefing on the suggested budget for the Council Office?
