City Council:
AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING A BUDGET
LINE TRANSFER WITHIN THE OFFICE OF
THE CITY CLERK TO COVER THE COST OF
ADDITIONAL ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP DUES
Whereas, in correspondence dated October 3, 2025, the City Clerk formally requested authorization for the Comptroller to transfer funds within the 2025 adopted budget as shown below; and
Whereas, the Office of the City Clerk requires additional funding to cover the cost of annual membership dues for professional associations that support the efficient and transparent administration of municipal clerk functions; and
Whereas, the current appropriation in budget line A 1410.403 (Membership & Dues) is insufficient to meet the necessary expenditure for these annual memberships; and
Whereas, sufficient funds are available in budget line A 1410.215 (Software & Software Support) to support this transfer without adversely affecting departmental operations; and
Whereas, the City Clerk has therefore requested a transfer of funds between the two accounts to ensure that all membership obligations can be fulfilled in a timely manner; and
