Item #26 / Mayor's Staffing Proposal Amendments

Post by Kathie Tovo »

Colleagues:
As you are aware, the Audit and Finance Committee was asked to review this item. On March 25, the committee unanimously voted in favor of several changes to the original proposal. These changes are reflected below and will be proposed as formal amendments tomorrow. The message board does not preserve formatting, so I am unable to highlight or underline the amended language.

Best,
Kathie Tovo
Chair of Audit and Finance Committee

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN:

The City Manager is directed to identify budget-neutral funding options from the City of Austin FY 2014-2015 Operating Budget for twelve full-time equivalent employees, one for each Council office and two for the Mayor’s office for the purpose of enhancing constituent services.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED
Positions or funding will return to the originating department absent an affirmative vote of the Council to continue funding these positions in the FY16 budget.
